The Beach Bum Returneth!

Hellooo bloggy people! I am home! Had a fantastic time in Washington with my friend Ashland. She was such a great hostess and so easy to be around. I loved LOVED the beach house in Long Beach. It was so cute! 

I was concerned about what I was eating on this trip, but I musta done something right because I didn't gain any weight! Ok, so I didn't lose weight either, but, meh, I'll take it. We did a lot of walking, which was great. The beach was beautiful and yes, long, as the name would indicate. :P 

Anyhoo, enough blathering from me! I will move on to what you really want...PICTURES! 



Ashland...she's so frickin' cute! And 5 months preggers, btw. :)

Beach house...love it! 

The white room. Cutest ever. :) 

Funky driftwood


Candid shot...waiting for Ash to figure out the self-timer!

Picnic lunch on the rocks.



What goes down...must come up!

And here I try to go down again. Nice drop off I nearly took a header into!

Lighthouse at Cape Disappointment



Ash found her name here...WWII bunkers.

Almost didn't see this one! 

I'm supposed to be pretending it's pecking my my eyes out...yeahhh.

Fire in Ashland's back yard...last night in WA.

Buds since elementary school! 

Well, there you have it folks! My trip, for the most part. Great, relaxing time had by all. Ugh, back to reality and eating properly and working out every day! 

Stats for the day:

Weight: 190 (phew!)

Exercise: 40 minutes.
