We left San Diego on Monday, June 5th for our epic Family Reunion on the East Coast.
First stop after our non-stop to BWI was Debbie's new Salon and then lunch at a place called "Pairings" near Bel Air, MD.
Here we are at Pairings, a good spot.
After hanging out with Deb & Jake for a couple days, we headed to Ocean City, MD, where we spent some time in this condo.
Mike was already there and Malarie, who is working in Ocean City for the summer, was able to get some time off and hang out.
Lorri lounging on the sofa. The condo is owned by a friend of Debbie's and we appreciated the free accommodations!
This is the view from the balcony looking east.

We had "dinner" at the bar of the Greene Turtle, which was a short walk from the condo.
OC is making some effort to reclaim part of the beach for sand dunes. This is the path out to the beach.
The middle building is where the condo was, still is, I guess.
Relaxing in the sun.

Jake finished his junior year on Wednesday and drove down with two of his buddies to get some beach time.
Here we are getting beach time.
OK, this is a boat that does nothing but chug up and down the coast displaying and ever-changing billboard of ads.
On the boardwalk.
What the heck? There is a building behind all those signs.
Maryland Crabs!

After all that board-walking we had to stop for a brew.

We are told that during the high season, these beaches are filled blanket to blanket and it's hard to find a good spot if you get there late. Glad we weren't there in high season.
