This weekend, I had a chance to get out of town. I took a half day Friday and hit the road. I only had one thought on my mind- take me to the beach. I spent most of my life living less than half a mile from the beach, and I totally took it for granted. Now that I am living and working in the DC area, I jump at every opportunity I get to put back on my bathing suit.

Welcome to the beach, MVM. |
A's wonderful family invited us to Atlantic Beach, NC for the weekend. We ate, drank and enjoyed the sun (while it was out).

The weather was not as sunny as I had hoped for, but it didn't deter us from having a little adventure! We were sent out on a mission to get ice. And instead took a little pit stop to check out what the locals did for fun.

The "coolest" ice machine. |
This is the Tackle Box Tavern, the local dive bar, where locals get so drunk that the bartenders have their wives' numbers on speed-dial. Don't try the "Woo Woo."

Back in time to watch the storm roll in over the ocean.
