HA!!! Gotcha!!! No, this is NOT the house we stayed in, this was across the street. I guess I should actually not call it a beach house, more of a beach mansion:):) I went down last Wed. morning, did some shopping (there is a BIG Home Goods) then met the girls for lunch. Then we went to the house and unpacked and relaxed til Dinner. On the first night we always all bring a snack and share. Here are some of the YUMMY things we had. Shrimp....
Caprese Bites, YUM!!!!...
Pasta salad
I brought the meatballs....
This was my drink: I will get the recipe from my girlfriend. It was delish:)
Here is another shot of the house across the street.
From the beach
Thurs. morning I took a walk to the beach. The boardwalk was kinda deserted.
I can smell the salt air:):)
AHHHHHH.....there's the ocean!
I LOOOOVE the ocean.
A seagulls tracks
Standing in the water. It was warm!
A dog, playing in the surf.
Heaven....at least to me.
My sister asked me to get her a shell and this was the ONLY one I saw:(
Gorgeous blue skies
My flip flop, flip flops:):)
Going back to the house
We were 2 doors down from the beach
This was "our" house
My room was on the top floor on the right there
the front porch, I forgot to take a pic of the back screened in porch. We hung out there alot.
Back to the beach Fri. morning for an hour and a half til I had to leave:(:(
Thanks so much for your visit. I am crazy busy this week getting ready to GO, so this could be my last post for awhile. BUT, I WILL be back:):) Joining some of these parties, HOPEFULLY:):) XO, Pinky

The beach looked wonderfully inviting! I love the house you stayed in, too. I'm glad you got away for a little rest before the big move.
ReplyDeleteLove you!
Pinky, isn't the beach relaxing?! Looks like you had a fabulous time! I know you are more than excited about your new place!
ReplyDeleteOh this just did my heart good. I am missing my beach so much! I always say that as long as my toes are in the sand, I am a happy girl! So glad you had a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteThe beach is such a great place to relax, refresh, regroup and realize what a beautiful world we live in and talk about beautiful, love your toe ring and ankle bracelet!...You are too cool Pinky!!
ReplyDeletePinky, how you did this with everything else going on in your life, I don't know. A beach trip in September is just what I need...looked like there were not many people and great weather. Glad you could do this. Great house. Joni
ReplyDeleteI'm headed to the beach today--my first time in September and I cannot wait. Thanks for sharing your love of the beach, it is one of my loves too!
ReplyDeletePinky~ It looks like you had a wonderful trip! We just got back from the Outer Banks last weekend~ I love to go to the beach in mid to late September when it's almost desserted. Good luck with your move!
ReplyDeleteHi Pinky,
ReplyDeleteMy Uncle lives on Queen St right behind the house you were taking pictures of on the boardwalk!! Your house was probably across the street from him. Sorry that you didn't get to meet up with Jackie and I...was looking forward to seeing you. Did you sell your house? Good luck moving into your new one...I know the both of you can't wait!! It's so exciting!
Congrats, Cathy
I kind of thought that was a northern beach!!! I grew up in Maryland going to Ocean City!!! Hope you had fun!
ReplyDeleteThose ocean pictures are absolutely gorgeous!! It looks like you had a great time! The food looks amazing. Shrimp is my FAVE!
