I'm off to spend the weekend in Maryland's paradise

I'm seizing the moment and I'm taking a rare weekend off. My parents are here for a visit, the temps climbed above 100 degrees yesterday, the girls are going stir crazy ... so we are off to spend 3 days at the beach on Assateague Island, Maryland's paradise.

Wild Horse Assateague Island, MDWhen we visited Assateague Island last summer we quickly declared it to our favorite beach. Having been to a few on 3 different continents, we are totally qualified to make the call, too. There are no hotels or high rise condos anywhere, it's a treasure cove of sea glass and sea shells that has every little girl going squee in delight and seeing a wild horse trot by you while you soak up the sun is just really special.

It's such a peaceful place - and just about 3 hours (give or take some depending on traffic) from the Wash DC - Baltimore Metro area which makes it a perfect weekend get-away destination.

So I'm seizing the moment, I'm off to spend the weekend in Maryland's paradise with hubby, the girls and my parents. We'll spend hours building sand castles, collecting sea shells, admiring the view and feeling the sand between our toes .... 

See you all next week!

Andrea, We've been down at Atlantic Beach NC for the last week and really enjoying the cooler weather.  We know it's been a scorcher back in Cincinnati since we left, and the weather here has been ideal.  Heading back home tomorrow, maybe it will cool off by tomorrow evening?  We can hope......

We are so use to the heat, that there is a disconnect when I read headlines talking about how hot it is elsewhere.

Hi Bliz, I hope you had a wonderful time! It sounds like temps are going to ease up a little bit, back to the 80s over the weekend.

Hi Winston, I'm not complaining just think that high temps and the beach are a perfect combination :-)

Hi Cindy, it is the perfect place! As soon as we arrived, I just sat down and soaked up the scenery, picture perfect blue sky, the ocean, sand between my toys, a sea-gull or 2 ... Aaaaah! Hi Mike, it's just been an awesome time. I wish there was a slow down button for time though!
