After the stormy days we have had I took a drive all the way to the pier in Ocean City, Maryland. It was so sunny and that wide beach was gorgeous, more so, this time of the year. People were walking their dogs or just sitting on the many benches that line this amazingly long boardwalk.
Yes, definitely, we should “Toast Our Coast”. See you soon….
