I love you, Charlie McBrayer!
We are heading to Sunset Beach, North Carolina, tonight for a beach weekend with family and friends. Yep, I'm playing hooky tomorrow. The weather should be sunny but a little cool for sunning or swimming. But we can't wait! Here is a little snapshot of spring, which is looking glorious here in central North Carolina- especially since the sun decided to shine again yesterday!

Happy Birthday Charlie!!!
What a lovely tribute - to what sounds like a "one in a million" guy.
Enjoy your weekend at the beach.
Have a wonderful weekend! Congrats on the arrival of your new little great niece. What a nice week you are having!
