BEACH DAZED

 
If I learned one thing from this beach gaunt, it's that I now know when I retire, I AM retiring to a shore point. The beach is by far my favorite place to be. So rejuvenating. It can be fun and fast paced or as slow and peaceful as one wants it to be.  The Capital Street Duo, friend Garrett, and I were off to Rehoboth Beach for five glorious days...and good days to be there as summer heat was and is here. But being on the beach with its breeze was lovely feeling and the sea, very refreshing. A perfect time to be there. I dare say I got very nicely bronzed. Rehoboth is another lovely beach locale...I dare say a perfect combination of P-town and New Hope put together, with a slight chic feel to it. Much fun was had, we found ourselves on the beach daily, ate, drank, shopped, ate, drank, caught up with drag pals, drank, much relaxing with more drinks. Our Guest House was very charming, very attentive and welcoming staff with a lovely rooftop deck and lower patio, outdoor showers, and nice, charming rooms, and gardens in the courtyard. By time we left I think we met everyone in the B&B, and I might have had a clandestine with one that I met at the tea dance! We've already booked while there, a return trip in October. Now it's back to work today. How bad can it be??? A three-day work week, and yet another next week for the Fourth holiday. Some sights to muddle through of the guest house and seaside....

NO...I didn't take Bouvier with me. 
This squirrel was a supporter of Pride, apparently.

Another guest at the B&B, from Ohio. He was quite something girls! He hung out with Edmund and I  late with cocktails one night. And I'll leave that there.
Look at this beach nibble.
With sunsets like this, how could one not want to live along the sea???

  1. YOU live the life, my darling! How absolutely fabulous. And in such GOOD company! The quality on the east coast must be much higher than here in cheese curd country. Incidentally, the BF planted a similar flag in our front garden... yesterday two squirrels came along and tore the the thing up! Who knew squirrels were so political??? And bigoted? Very jell, hon. You live the way we all wish we could.

      Did the squirrels belong to the Altio's???

  2. Years back my sister lived in Dover and whenever I visited we'd head down to Rehoboth Beach for a couple of days. I love a good beach town and it was a nice cpot and looks even nicer today ... with hot buns on the sand, you know!

  5. Lots of cake, I see.
    And that beach nibble? Yum.
    I think retiring near the beach is a mood. Can you imagine? All that fresh air, the sound of the sea and those beach bunnies!

  8. Sweet Jesus, if you bounced a quarter off Garrett's "quarter panels" yesterday it probably hasn't landed yet. Nice pics, and I'm glad you had a great time.
