Can't Wait For Summer....

I know it's not even March yet, but I can't stop thinking about our Summer vacation this year. Mainly because my mom can't stop talking about it, where we should go and if we should try something different.
See for last few years, my whole family has gone together. (by "my whole family" I mean, my mom, sister, her husband, kids and my brother....that makes 10 of us) We go to Long Beach Island, NJ. The first couple times we went we stayed in this tiny house about a block and a half away from the beach, but for the last 2 years we stayed at a much bigger house right on the beach. OMG, it was heaven... I loved to sit out on the deck over looking the ocean in the morning with my coffee and the evenings with a cocktail.
We found out last summer the owner was selling and the new owners would not be renting it out for this year because they want to do a major remodel. My mom got a good deal on this house, which is the only reason we could stay in such a nice/big place. So her idea for this year was to maybe go to a lake community instead of the ocean again. We are considering The Poconos in PA. I just want to sit on a beach, in the sand and get sun on my fat ass, so I could really care less where it is. I think my mom, my sister and I are going to use this as a good excuse to go"check out" the new spots. Ooohhhh, I'm game for that.... "Road-Trip".

I will miss LBI, but looking forward to going somewhere new.
