stay

Staycation: (n); a vacation taken within a short distance of one's home.

I think Wilmington is growing on me. Although, I do think I was lied to. We went to the ocean today, the first time I've ever seen the Atlantic Ocean, and the water was not warm. Everyone told me how warm the water on the east coast is, yada, yada, yada. Well, they did not speak truth. But it's okay, the dunes here are pretty and we found our way to an awesome tiki bar. After the beach we went to the batting cages to hit a few -- yep, I'm as good as I ever was (batting about a .100 = not very good). I like that we didn't have to go far to feel like we are exploring new places and seeing new things. It helps that we live in a beach town where thousands of people come every summer for vacation. Wanna visit? We have a fabulous futon waiting just for you.
