It was so nice, I really do love the beach.
We drove to The *Jersey Shore’s Long Branch on Saturday with Sam and Anna, and enjoyed all the beach has to offer. We splashed in the ocean, chased seagulls, convinced ourselves we kicked a shark underwater, we ate snacks, read magazines, took naps and got stuck in traffic. That’s what beaching is about.

I think we can even get in one more beach trip this summer. So fun.

*You might be surprised to find out that the Jersey Shore has many beautiful beaches. Some that aren’t overrun by orange gorilla-juice heads. If you’re looking for GTLers, you’re looking for Seaside.

Reagan and I were able to take a little road trip down south, this weekend to Virginia Beach. Some of our friends have access to a great beach house down there and invited us to tag along. For the most part, the weather was awesome. It was mid 80’s for the entire time. Sunday was a little overcast, at times, but still pleasant beach weather.

It was really cool to drive across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel. I saw a thing about how they built it on Modern Marvels, one time and had been curious about it ever since. I also loved watching all of the ship traffic come in and out of the bay, while we were there. We even saw an aircraft carrier on its way out to sea.

On the way home, we stopped for dinner in Delaware. When I came outside afterwards, there was a group of guys with motorcycles, in the parking lot, by our car. One of the guys had done his whole bike up in red carpet. Hahahaha. It was awesome. I snapped a couple of shots (below) and chatted it up with the riders for a few minute while I was waiting for Reagan to come out.

We had a really great time down there and were glad to become a little better acquainted with some of our friends and their families. More photos can be seen here.
