Last week our family spent the 4th of July on the shoreline of North Carolina's Outer Banks. We were fortunate enough to be able to spend the time with Mr. Rosemary Lane's entire family...yup 41 of us in total. We actually stayed in the part of OBX known as Kill Devil Hills, the home of Kitty Hawk. And you know I never cease to be amazed at the beauty of the country I call home. The crystal clear water of this coastline vacation spot is met by a beach with unbelievably hot sand during the day, but by evening cool enough to take a nice long barefoot stroll. It was an incredibly relaxing vacation with no schedules to adhere. You ate when hungry, slept when tired, and partied when in the mood. The nice thing about vacationing with such a large number of people is that there is always someone to do something with. And if it was a little alone time you desired, well you could easily sneak off to any number of remote corners of the house to just chill and read a book, check your emails (if you so desire), or catch a well deserved cat nap.
