Where’ve You Been Sascha Darlington?

We spent a week for Thanksgiving at Sandbridge Beach in Virginia Beach where we were joined by family and friends.
I had the best intentions of posting once or twice while away–but we know about good intentions, right?
We arrived on Friday evening and on Saturday, Sophie, Scout and I were the only ones on the beach.

Well, except for these guys who got swept back into the sea on the next high tide:

A then there were these guys who were not so abundant last May but were this past week:

We then went walking in Back Bay National Wildlife refuge where I hope to see migrating birds who’ve settled here for the winter. (Not the dogs since they’re not permitted.)

While I didn’t see much wildlife, the weather was pretty spectacular for the last week of November.

Sunset at Back Bay.


And, yes, Scout was at the Beach.


And the last evening at Sandbridge. Sunset turning the ocean silver and pink.

A busy and fun-filled week and a joyous Thanksgiving day.
I am officially back! ๐
Thrilled your back. You shared some pretty spectacular photos for which I thank you whole heartedly. I feel as though I’ve been there. The original armchair traveler. So beautiful!!!!!!!
Thank you, Phyllis. I am happy to be back and get back! ๐
Looks like it was a fun time and that’s what counts! wooot

So pretty! It looks amazingly peaceful.
It was. Bunches of people showed up at the beach on Tuesday and Wednesday, but it was still nice. ๐
What a beautiful place. And here is nothing wrong in taking a break. Welcome back.
Thank you, Anne! I hope to be back with gusto….or at the very least, a little energy. ๐
Wow. Great photos. Made me smile, as I sit here in my snowy desert.
Stay warm!
