Hello from Ocean City, my friends. And Happy Friday! The above picture sums up much of what we have done these past few days here. It is rainy and foggy and chilly, but I am not disappointed in the least, as you may know by now. Cozy, right? We ventured out to celebrate my super fantastic friend Heather's birthday, and she was treated to this awesome surprise...
And because we really aren't the super fancy-schmancy type, we also spent some time at a place that my family loves. I myself have never been there but was pleasantly surprised at how fun...and how clean it was. Have you ever heard of Duckpin Bowling? Me either. It is like bowling, only the pins are smaller and lighter, and you use a smaller ball.
My third and fourth came this trip...
And here they are with Heather!
Me and the husband...
And a picture of the scoreboard, just in case you wondered who won.
Hint: ME!!!
They had real sharks too.
And to document we were indeed at the beach, a photo Steve took during his walk this morning. Which I received when I woke up. : )
This weekend we return Home Sweet Home, and I will fill my planner with a few items, including my annual trip to the eye doctor, a yearly check-up at the doctor for Flynn, and a couple of appointments for my mom. Who is doing well. Thank you all for asking.
Margie is spending a lot of time with her this week!
Have a relaxing day and a lovely weekend, my friends.
Tomorrow I plan on getting cozy and catching up with you!
Prayers for Ukraine.
Billie Jo
Your days always seem so cozy. I love that!! How fun to get to spend time with the family and enjoy each other.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!!
that birthday sounded just perfect. I've never bowled but once in my life. What a shame. It looks like fun.

ReplyDeleteLove the beach even when it is not sunny, I will walk for hours!
ReplyDeleteNow I feel like I have to see if they have Duckpin bowling in my area!
ReplyDeleteGetting away with the family - looks fun! And I've never heard of duckpin bowling...I learned something new! Coming home is always sweet...safe travels. Mary
ReplyDeleteI think you are referring to Ocean City, Maryland? I live in California but have read/ seen pictures of Ocean City. Always thought it would be a nice place to visit. Was it cold?
ReplyDeleteGlad you have had a nice trip.
Hi Billie Jo. So glad you and your family are enjoying some time at the beach. I have never heard of Duckpin Bowling. It looks like lots of fun. Safe travels back to your cozy home. See you again soon!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good get-away but I know you were glad to get back home. I have never heard of Duckpin Bowling either but sounds easier maybe, and fun. Have a cozy weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Billie Jo! Sending you a big virtual hug! miss ya and so glad to see your back. I have been M.I.A. but love checking in when I have some free time. so glad I did. I have never heard of this kind of bowling but it sounds fun! so glad to see your momma is well : )
ReplyDeleteHello Billie Jo, one of the reasons I love photos so much is they tell the story of our life, so happy you and family were able to get away! I love cozy too!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to catch up! This type of bowling is new to me but sounds like fun! Enjoy your weekend.

You seem to be having a good, happy time. We have a duck pin bowling venue right here in our little town. Why have we not gotten ourselves there yet?!?
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I'm hearing of Duckpin Bowling. I'd probably love it since I can barely use an 8 lb ball in regular bowling! I have no upper body strength, so a lighter ball sounds great! Congratulations on your win!
ReplyDeleteI've not heard of Duckpin bowling, but it sounds great! We used to bowl, and now the grandkids like to go, but the balls have gotten too heavy for me with my back issues.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of duckpin bowling , does it mean the pins are harder to hit if they are smaller !

It sounds like you had a wonderful time! Happy Spring Days!
ReplyDeleteOh the beach is calling my name. The sound of the ocean is soothing to the soul. Fun times with family doing anything makes us happy. Hope you had a safe trip back home. Hugs.
