Time to plan that vacation
Going on vacation in July. But the planning starts now.
Well. Actually the planning started last year. Right after we got back from our vacation.
I know. We are weird like that. It starts as a thought of what we would like to do the next year. We talk about it a little. Get through the holidays, and then when January comes and we are dreaming of someplace warm, we start talking about shere we are going to go on vacation.
North Carolina. That is where we are going to go again. Oak Island.
We have been to Oak Island 4 times now, I do believe. And we love it. We get a house right on the ocean, and settle in. The sun, the wind, the ocean, the moon. There is nothing like it.
We saw sea turtles hatching last year. We had a hatching area right in front of the house. We knew it was there because of all of the signs posted telling us to “Keep Off The Dunes!!” And “Sea Turtle Nest!! Keep Out!!” We are rather intuitive in these things.
Regardless. This year we are going to a different area than where we have usually gone. Closer to town. Taking bikes for The Princess and her friend so that they can ride around and be teenagers. This is going to be weird.
Wish me luck.
Namaste.
