I just returned from a fun-filled long weekend at the beach! It was the last trip of the summer before my college girl returns to school and we had a fabulous time. While there we were able to take in several days of The Dew Tour. Thought I'd share some pictures with you. Hope your weekend was as fun-filled as mine :)

Unfortunately the waves were pretty calm, but we still enjoyed swimming.

Last, but certainly not least Baltimore-area native Bucky Lasek.

Hoping your day is full of adventure and joy,
