Summertime on the Crystal Coast

 

I love summer on the NC Coast!  I don't mind the extremely high temps, I don't mind the humidity (okay, maybe a little), I don't even mind the extra traffic on the beach because that means that tourism is still alive and well on the Crystal Coast of North Carolina.  Everything is just so much more colorful in the summer, and for me,  it's easier to enjoy the simple things!  Seashells in the sand, water balloon fights in the backyard, the glorious colors of the Crepe Myrtles against the Carolina blue sky, Ice Cream Trucks,  Ahhhhhh.....

Oh Amy, if only we had those Ice Cream Trucks still.  I don't know if I could outrun the kids but I would certainly give it a good college try.
