Well East coast girls are hip, I really dig those clothes they wear

I think on Sunday we are going to blast down the coast to the Outer Banks to check out the heavy surf and big waves created by the hurricane passing just offshore. Saturday would be the better day, but I don't think that will work out. The kidlet hasn't seen the ocean in that form, having only experienced the sunny summer days with blue waters and calmer waves. It's a very cool view that I remember being fascinated with as I walked along the coast in the falls of my childhood.

We'll also be checking out the family beachhouse that my parents are building down there. The sheetrock is going up next week and by next summer, we'll have a home base in my favorite place on the planet that we can go to as much as we want. Two hours away makes it very convenient for weekend trips, and the occasional longer vacation. I just can't wait to have that back again. We had a beachhouse down there while I was growing up and they are still some of the best memories of my life. I hope the kidlet feels the same when she's older.
