Back from the Beach...

 

 We were able to sneak away to the beach for a
beautiful few days to celebrate our 40th Anniversary. 
Lucy and I spent mornings on the porch together
...me with the OC paper and coffee and Lucy got to watch
the up early morning folks strolling by. 
Lou missed this morning ritual as he opted to sleep in. 

We had gorgeous weather to walk along
the beach and boardwalk.
Unfortunately Lucy couldn't join us as she
is still recuperating from a herniated disk
in her back. It's going on 4 weeks now
and she is doing much better. 
We have another follow up
with the vet on Wednesday.

And the sunsets were beautiful...

 

 

 

There are some new rules and regulations
at the beach resort this summer.  

 And it was OC Cruisin' weekend...

It was nice to get away for a few relaxing days...

but back to reality this morning.

At the Beach...1955

My Mother, Aunt and Me
on the beach in Ocean City, Maryland.

Summer of 1955

Home Again.........

After my visit to Ocean City I am looking forward to adding beachy things to my listings. I already have a few but will be adding more in the weeks to come.

My Friend and Fellow Painter....

My Friend and Fellow Painter....Dee of Icehouse Crafts told me...You need a blog!!! So here it goes.

I am at the beach, Ocean City, MD, with my friend Bonnie. We have been friends since we were 4 years old. We grew up in the same neighborhood and were best friends all through school. She was my Maid of Honor and I was hers. She has two daughters close in age to my two daughters and they played together when they were little. She has been a dear friend all these years and I am a very lucky woman to have had her in my life.

We have been trying to have a Girl's Getaway for over a year and I finally decided I could take a few days away from the studio. It's a beautiful day here in OC, although still a bit brisk. The view from the hotel window looks out over the Assawoman Bay and there should be a wonderful view of the sunset this evening. We are hoping to do some antiquing, maybe in Berlin or Snow Hill, take a stroll on the boardwalk if it's not too cold, and of course get a vanilla milkshake from Dumsers.

Going to get ready for dinner...
