Ocean Shores

For Labor Day weekend, we decided to take a little vacation. We went camping on Friday night. Our campsite was walking distance from the beach in Ocean City. By the time we set up our tent, it was dark, we took a stroll on the beach anyway. After we played cards for awhile, we went to sleep and were woken up several times by the rain and the wind. In the morning there was a line between the two of us. Richard's side was completely soaked and Becky's side was perfectly dry. Kind of mysterious and funny. :) We bought a cool kite in town at Ocean Shores and spent a good deal of time trying to get it up in the air. Richard got pretty good at it. It was a fancy one with 2 strings. The beach was nice. The weather was really nice, it wasn't too hot or too cold, just a little windy, perfect for kite flying. We also found a cool Arcade that also had mini golf and bumper boats. We played a nice game of mini golf in which Becky cremed Richard. An all time first for Becky at golf. There was also this cool shop near the beach that had a shark's mouth as the entrance. We bought some delicious salt water taffy there. Saturday night we decided we didn't want to go home and stayed in a place called Weatherly Suites. It was set up like an apartment inside except there was a jacuzzi tub in the living room so you could watch t.v in the tub. There was a thunderstorm that night and in the morning it was still pretty rainy, so we hung out a little and then headed home.

  3. That looks like fun! Greg and I got a kite that looks just like that at Ocean Shores a few years ago. We probably bought it at the same shop. The tub in the living room sounds great. I wish I had a hot tub...
