a weekend at the beach / niantic, ct

March 10, 2019

I’m just going to say it right now: I am OVER winter. So I’m sorry for this entire post, but it’s happening. If you don’t like it, stop reading now and go play in some snow or something.

Every summer, and now every winter as well, my friends and I go away for a girls weekend. After returning from our snowy girls weekend up in the Berkshires last week to a foot of snow, and now looking out my window at the ice coming down…I am longing for those sweet summer days.

So pardon me while I reminisce about our weekend at the beach—dream on, fellow winter sufferers. We’ll be complaining about the heat again before you know it…
