Sometimes You Just Need a (Wrightsville) Beach Day

When a girl needs a beach day, she needs a beach day. And a few weekends ago, I needed a beach day — a day at the Wrightsville Beach oceanfront to be precise. Complete with a blanket in the sand, a good book, and a low maintenance lunch (a Subway sandwich and a Diet Coke), I took advantage of the beautiful sunny and 70 degree (November!!) weather and spent a few hours at one my favorite, most happiest places. It was the best therapy a girl could ask for following several weeks of long, busy workweeks and post-election chaos. Out on the beachfront for more than two hours, I spent my time napping, people watching, meandering, taking pictures, reading, and enjoying the peace and beauty of the moment.

Ocean Views and Good Brews in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Back in late-March, Alex and I took a day trip to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina to enjoy an afternoon of ocean views and good brews. Though I’m not a frequent visitor to this well-known, we’ll-traveled area, I’ve really come to love Myrtle Beach from my handful of visits over the last decade. A bustling coastal city known best for its beachside resorts and its boardwalk filled with attractions for the whole family, Myrtle Beach is one of those places that’s sure to give you lots of fun memories to look back on for years to come.

Thanks to the Christmas and New Year’s holidays and an extremely flexible job, I was able to take the last two weeks of December off work — and let me tell you, the extended break was SO good for my mental health.
