It wasn’t exactly swimming weather, but it was still a great day to sit on the beach-feet in sand and sun overhead! Had a tasty seafood lunch afterwards and I always love to look at the vintage diving suit in the restaurant lobby. I can’t imagine being submerged in such heavy gear! I always like looking at the boats too. This time they were still dry docked awaiting summer fun.
quick getaway to the beach!
Summer has come and gone so fast! I was missing the ocean so much, so this week I met an old friend down in Spring Lake to enjoy one of the last days of summer. I brought a pink noodle, a weekender and a bag of books which I never actually read. :) But the water was perfect and the first day had perfect weather too! We drove down to Point Pleasant for dinner and (of course!) my beloved Skee Ball. Good times! Because my friend was new to it, I gave her my winning tickets. Combined with her tickets, she was able to choose a deluxe jump rope. I usually just get an eraser or parachute man. (also cool) And speaking of parachute man—they seem to have discontinued that goodie for good. I enjoyed tossing him off second story buildings so that a kid on the boardwalk below could wonder where it came from! Small pleasures…
One day vacay...
Quickie trip to the beach yesterday. I’ve been working like crazy and needed a break to recharge. The waves were gentle, so I took my new donut float out and bobbed about for an hour. Unfortunately I punctured the nozzle so we had to part ways at the end of the day. :(
