Rain, rain go away...

...Not ActiveRain but the rain that is washing away any hopes of our Holiday Flotilla.  http://www.ncholidayflotilla.org/ParadeDetails/Overview/tabid/68/Default.aspx

I blogged a few days ago about, "What is a Flotilla?" and I would like to thank all that responded with educated and hilarious answers.  Our Holiday Flotilla is celebrating its 25th Anniversary this year and it looks as it will go down in the record books as a soggy one.  The Holiday Flotilla always brings excitement not only to my family but to all in the Wrightsville Beach Community.  We hold the festive parade of boats the following Saturday after Thanksgiving.  It's a way of kicking off the Christmas Season while all the families are in town for Thanksgiving.

Yesterday evening I met Debbie Prachel, Realtor from Advance, NC who was in town with her husband Ron to see the Flotilla.  They come every year although they live almost 5 hours away.  If you ever need real estate around Charlotte, NC call Debbie Prachel, 336-909-1284.

If the rain does not let up and we decide not to take our 3 kids to the Wrightsville Beach Flotilla, Kim and I may try to make arrangements to see the Carolina Beach Flotilla which is only about 10 miles down the road.  Carolina Beach holds their Flotilla the first Saturday in December.

For now, I'll keep saying rain, rain go away...

We had one of the dryest summers here in SW VA, but it always seems to rain when you don't want it to  :)

But man when it doesn't it's really magical.  Thank you for your reply Edna.  Do you ever visit Wrightsville Beach, NC?
