Ahhh, the beach! Indeed, life is Good at the Beach. We’re off for a week at the beach! Hope you all have a wonderful week & don’t forget about me! I’ll take lots of pics & share when I get back. In the meantime, we’ll be eating lots of seafood, lounging in the sand (under the umbrella, of course) and relaxing with a good book!

If you’ve never been to the Gulf Coast of Florida, you are missing out on the best beach experience in the good ole’ USA! It’s truly the most beautiful beaches around…powdery, sugar white sand, blue skies, & blue-green water. Spectacular! We just love Florida’s Gulf Coast! See ya’ll soon!

    I’m really going to miss you (forget you? Never!)! I think that I’d rather be going to the beach than garage sale-ing. I will look forward to your return, and seeing your pictures from your trip (there are some fun antique places on the way… 😉

    Love, Andrea

    I’ve been online the past couple of weeks trying to narrow down where we’re gonna stay in June.

    The Gulf beaches have the softest, whitest sand ever!

    Have a wonderful time!

    Have a great time. The beach is my favorite place in the world. We went to Destin once and the water was so beautiful.
