"I BELIEVE IN PINK! I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."— Audrey Hepburn

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every night, friends. You have done what you could. Let it go.

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

We're Back!! and it isn't Saturday but it is PINK!

We had a lovely vacation! I know, aren't they all? But this one really was...we went to a place called Sunset Beach, NC. This is located just above our beloved North Myrtle Beach, SC...So, technically someplace different, but close enough that we could visit our old haunts in the evening...We stayed in a nicely priced... IE; affordable...condo, located on a golf course...no we don't golf...but I watch golf...we were on the second floor and our screened in porch overlooked the 17th hole...lol...fun...(complete with the requisite sand trap, oops bunker...) off the end of the porch was a lovely pond complete with turtles and alligators...(see the previous post for more about that)


There you go...hole 17...
We had some fun with this...all would be quiet and then I would hear a plop...pretty soon a cart would arrive and out would pile some golfers...once in a while they have the good taste to be wearing pink...lol...
here is a shot of the view off the end of the porch...have I mentioned that it was screened in yet?? lol...


You can see the pond out there...I just had such a good time finding turtles either on the bank or with their little heads sticking out here and there in the water! The alligators would come out and sun themselves also...they looked so much like their surroundings they could be hard to spot...

Can you see the 6 turtles in a row that I spotted one afternoon?
One of my favorite memories! Actually there may be 7!

Here are a couple more shots of number 17 and the porch...


Oh look! Golfers! I do believe one of them is in Pink!

 Heaven...The weather was lovely and breezy!

The beach was to die for...the tide came up so high at night that the sand was very hard packed...perfect!


Here is my little area all set up for me by my daughter's friend...she was great at getting the umbrella dug down deep enough...those are her green flip flops...can you guess what color mine are?

Here are the bathing beauties!



And here is another shot of the lovely beach!


OK, so what would a Pink Saturday link up be with out some PINK!!
I mentioned that we went to our old NMB haunts in South Carolina also...


So...the very first day before the girls even arrived we headed for Broadway at the beach and hit my husband's favorite place...


That's right! and here he is taking a picture of me sitting in the boat!!


Now, you have to know that while on vacation...I shop...and here is where the Pink Part of the post comes in! So...here we go with the show and tell...sit back and enjoy....The girls and I visited the outlets...I, in particular, went to the coach outlet store and a little shop across from Margaritaville called Bijujus...


My new hats!


Just had to have this...


Coach key chain...

Wristlet...

Well that's it folks! I can honestly say...that I am sorry to be back...I wish we had at least another week...although I am so happy to be reunited with the Bailey Boy!
