I always knew I wasn’t normal, but I would prefer if it would manifest itself in ways other than randomly waking up at 5:45 AM while on vacation. Took the dog down to the dune deck and we sat and watched the waves for a while, and I’ve got my coffee, so it’s all good. (I’ll probably be napping at 10AM…)
We have made it to the happy place, with the hound in tow. He is still mildly confused, but I’d say give it another day and he’ll be walking around like he owns the place.
The house this year is great - probably the smallest we’ve been in, but still plenty of room. (And is for sale, a mere $785K!) The only gift to the house we’ve had to make is a baby gate for the deck stairs - that way the dog can hang out with us on the deck. The house we stayed in last year is *gone* - apparently a developer bought the lot and now there is a new house there. (Which would explain why we weren’t able to rent it this year…)Â The new place looks very pretty (and is on the market for over $1mil), but I liked the old place - it felt like a house that real people owned.
All in all, life is good.

Vacation days are best started early, especially when you’re by the ocean.
Glad to hear that you’re having a great time. Pics will follow, right? :)

Oh definitely!
Early is good. Just not usually quite *this* early. :)
