Remember when I was at the beach and I said I'd do a post with the progress on the Springmaid pier that was damaged in a hurricane several years back? Well, here that finally is! :P
I wish I had a view of it from the same distance, but I think you can see they've made a lot of progress on the rebuild. Sorry, it took me so long to post. I found some old sd cards tonight and I was looking on them and it made me think about it.
Well, not too bad, but still a frustration. Remember how I mentioned a shirt that I liked so much at the Myrtle Beach State park that I walked back from the hotel to get it? Well, I happened to notice a hole in it today!!!!!!! To say I was annoyed was an understatement. Luckily the hole was on a seam at the sleeve and it had not been stiched correctly at the factory. I got out the clothest blue thread I had and fixed it. Once I'm wearing it, you'd never know there had been a hole. Yay!
I am used to mending and repairing my old clothes when they need it, but not a brand new shirt! I've only worn it once and that wasn't for a long time. I am thinking it was like this when I bought it and I just didn't notice it. It's fixed now and I took a picture of the back to show you. The front has this same logo only smaller on the left front side.
The actual color is lighter blue and it's so pretty! I really like this shirt and it was worth it to me to walk to get it. :)
For the past few trips to Myrtle Beach, I have made a Beach bingo card in my bujo. I did it again this year and I finished decorating it and filling it in today. All the washi I used was actually bought while at the beach! I love the way it looks. Here is my completed bingo board:
I used my Canon Ivy to print three pictures for the left page. I think it turned out well! I love all the blue. The marks on the bingo board are a star stamper that I bought while at the beach and I just colored in the center to make them more visible. I like it!
I found a surprise today while in my kitchen. I went to give a drink of water to the succulent that I have had for years. It is blooming! It has two pretty little flowers on it. I took a picture of that too! ;p
I didn't know it would bloom because I have had it a very long time and it never has before. It was a nice surprise. I hope it gets more blooms in the future. I have had it in that window ever since I got it because it does so well there. I am scared to move it anywhere else!
Hello! We went to three Goodwill stores and to a Tuesday Morning we've never been before. It's a big one and I found too much stuff. I took a picture of my goodies and I'll share it below. I love the blue washi. The cacti stampers are adorable! I love all my goodies. That stamp pad ink is gorgeous. I just hope it's true to the color on the package.
Those coffee stampers! :D It was a good haul. I love Tuesday Morning. I'm sort of glad we don't have one where I live. LOL!
I am up a little early as I couldn't sleep. It's is another beautiful day here! The forecast was for thunderstorms and rain all day. I'm glad it was wrong! I took one picture of the beach and one of my setup here. I am not sure what I'm doing today. We'll see. I might walk out to 17 again or I might walk up Ocean Blvd. or I might do a beach walk. I haven't decided yet. For now, I'm going to sit and relax a bit. I'll fix something to eat, drink some coffee and then decide!
So, here I am sitting on the balcony posting my evening post. I have eaten and it was delicious. My friend didn't get ready until it was almost too late to go to Victoria's. They close at 8 and I was upset because I didn't want to go in and hold them over. We got our food to go and were out before they closed so that was okay. We brought it back here to eat and it was delicious. Sadly, since we brought it back here to eat, we didn't do anything else while out. Oh well.
I am enjoying the quiet of the evening and the sound of the waves crashing in on the beach. I hope tomorrow's weather is as nice as it was today! I am not sure exactly what I plan for tomorrow. We'll see. I would like to go to the pavilion one more time before we leave but who knows. I might wait until Sunday for that since we will still be here. That oceanfront Starbucks will be open tomorrow, though... :)
Here is a picture from the balcony tonight. Enjoy and I'll see you tomorrow morning!
I walked down to the Springmaid pier and back just a bit ago. I came back here and took a quick shower and put on fresh clothes. I was sweaty and hot! That shower was nice. The walk was great. I had a nice time. I hope my friend will get himself in gear soon. We are planning to go to Victoria's again tonight. Yummy! I want some of those delicious pork chops.
I am so glad the weather cleared up today. It makes it much nicer for doing things. I am glad I waited until this afternoon to walk as it really is pretty toasty. I will have a nighttime beach walk much later, but for now, I'm going to relax and wait until my friend is ready to go eat. After I cool down a bit more and post this, I'll go sit on the balcony. It's shady out there now and it should be a bit cooler with the breeze from the ocean coming in.
This last picture was taken on the little porch/deck on the back of the hotel. I sat there for a bit and enjoyed the shade! :p It's a peaceful place when there aren't a lot of people around and I had that advantage today.
Hello there! It's early afternoon and I'm posting again. I don't have anything exciting to say as I haven't done anything yet! I laid down to just relax for a few minutes and fell asleep! D'oh! It was a little after 1pm when I woke up. I was still nice and sleepy, but I got up anyway. I drank the coffee that I made earlier. It was still warm from being in my tumbler. I've eaten lunch and I'm just relaxing. I don't think we are going out right away, but I'm not sure. We'll see. Of course, I'll check in later. I took a few pictures of the beach. Look at how many people are there! Sheesh!
Hello there! It is nice and hot today at Myrtle Beach! The weather last night said it was supposed to be raining this morning, but it is definitely NOT raining! I am not complaining one bit. I was going to post this from the balcony, but it's hot as hell out there and I could barely see the screen. :p
I came in and I am not in airconditioned comfort but I can still see that beautiful ocean! It's definitely a lovely day and a big contrast to yesterday! I am not sure exactly what I'm going to do today. Walk or relax or...? We'll see! Right now I'm cooling off.
I took three pictures today to share. Two of the ocean and one of my chair with my Macbook Pro and Starbucks tumbler of coffee. Sadly it's room coffee and not Starbucks coffee, but you make do! :P
So, it's cleared off quite a bit here. The sky is still somewhat cloudy, but the sun has come out. People are back on the beach all up and down it. I took a few pictures to share. It is pleasant out here and I'm debating on if I want to walk on the beach now or not. I am not sure if it will rain again tonight. I don't want to miss a walk on the beach today because of rain. We'll see how it goes. Right now I'm going to sit here and enjoy this lovely breeze.
