A spur of the moment day trip
Did you every wake up on a weekend and decide it's a beautiful day for a road trip and just hop in the car and go?
We do that often, and since it was a gorgeous fall day we thought we'd head for the coast and visit a small town called Washington, NC, often referred to as "Little Washington" down here.
It's a small town by the water with lots of boating, and a quaint downtown with beautiful homes and cottages.
We enjoyed the walk by the water...
the breeze and sunshine felt heavenly and I love the sound of the sea gulls.
Here are some of the homes and cottages.
Around town you could see these painted crabs. It must have been some type of art project for the town.
Very whimisical.
Unique shops.
Road marker: Home of motion picture producer Cecil B. DeMille and his father Henry.
The old train station.
A beautiful church and old cemetery.

And lastly, an ice cream cone for the way home. Chocolate for me, please!
