Carolina.......

Last weekend we headed down on Friday for the beach. We got a house for the beach the Monday before. All the roommates signed up, as did 4 guys from Langley Ward. Friday night the drive down I-95 went pretty well. We got there about midnight and went down to the beach to hang out. On Saturday we hung out with about 500 or so other Mormons. Sunday, Kell and I went to Hatteras. Monday, we went back to the beach and then drove on back. We saw dolphins, Sara saved a couple of skates, a few lighthouses, spent some time in the water, played on the beach, strained a foot muscle, got a little sun, played some games, talked, flirted, skimboarded and slept on the beach. All in all a great weekend.

Delaware in a Day

About 3 and a half years ago, Kelli and I decided to hit the beach. Our destination was Rehoboth, the best beach I've been to out here within a 4 hour radius of the house. We drove on out...and about 3 hours from home, realized we were nearly to Philly. We had been to Rehoboth 4 or 5 times at that point and didn't use the map for directions. As we drove, and drove, and saw a sign saying I-95 was 10 miles in front of us...we knew the beach didn't move...but Rehoboth is 100+ miles from I-95....So, we got out the map, quickly saw we made a wrong move and that we were on the opposite corner of the state. Luckily, Delaware is small enough that we decided to just turn around and hit the beach. We drove through Dover, Wilmington and saw a lot of ghetto. We got to the beach about 4..long enough to soak some sun, lounge around, eat some sea food and do a little shopping before we arrived home after 10...a little sheepishly but no worse for wear. Plus, after that trip, we got to tell people its totally possible to circumnavigate Delaware in a day--If there was any doubt.
