Swimming with Sharks?

Recommended Posts

Well...I dont plan on it, but after all the attacks this year, you can bet I dont plan to venture very far out in the surf! :blink:

 

For the last week, Ive been putting the finishing touches on a little vacation to the (OBX) Outer Banks, North Carolina.

 

10 years ago, my oldest daughter got married there, and ever since then we always said we would like to go back sometime without that kind of agenda.Last time the women had running around to do every day to get ready which left little time to really enjoy being there.

 

I reserved a house for next June and it appears all the girls and their better half's will be able to get vacation time so, today I sent in the deposit! :)

 

this is what we will be renting...our only criteria was , that we wanted ON the ocean, and have a pool....so that we dont become shark bait...lol..

It was almost impossible to find a house big enough that we were willing to pay that much for...the prices sure have gone up in the last 10 years...lol....Last time we stayed on the sound side, along the 5th fairway of the golf course...no pool, so it was a LOT cheaper.....this time we will have have good views of the sunrise (ocean)AND sunset (sound)...It gets pretty narrow where we will be staying so we should be able to get good views of both.(last time our house faced west (sunsets)

 

anyhow...I know DD would like to swim with sharks, but I am content to see the water out my window and not really care whats swimming in it...lol..

 

(also me and the Missus are planning a return trip to Florida in Feb. we made reservations last year when we were there...Its in Pompano Beach..its a little place that we kinda stumbled across last year, and liked how secluded and quiet it was, so we are heading back again...

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
