Everything's Beachy!

I hope everyone had a fabulous Memorial Day weekend! We went to the beach today and had a lot of fun! We waded in the water and collected crabs. Yes, I said crabs. Not shells. Crabs. Fiddler crabs to be exact. My daughter loves to catch them and my fiance loves to use them as bait. So we have about forty crabs in a terrarium.

We grilled food at the beach and had an overall fabulous time! I actually got a little color to my skin so I no longer look like the East Coast Ghost! Well, at least on my legs and arms anyway. No way I'm exposing more than that at the beach just yet.

I almost wish I could live at the beach. But then I think about all the storms and the flooding. I think about having sand in every crevice imaginable. Both on your person and in your house. So I think visiting is just fine. Though I wouldn't mind having a beach house just to be able to go and stay whenever I wanted to. Of course I'd have to hire someone to clean out all of the sand! Maybe someday when we are no longer "food stamps" broke. Until then our visits will be limited to weekends. But they will be fun weekends! :)

    The sand would drive me nuts too! There is a reason most hotels along the beach have tile floors and no carpet, because the sand gets everywhere and is impossible to clean!

    Still, the beach can be so beautiful and relaxing. Glad you and your family got to enjoy it.
