Of course, you can play! What to do with all the pantyhose? Wanna play "banks and robbers"? LOL! Welcome to BWS, Hevyn.

Hevyn, welcome. I can't beleive you live in Ocean City. For those who don't know, that's a huge vacation spot for Baltimorans.

Did you live and work there before you retired?

Here's how you can fill some of your days -

Walk the boradwalk and eat some Thrasher's french fries for the rest of us.

Walk the beach at sunrise.

Visit Candy Kitchen and eat some fresh taffy for us.

Go to the outlets in Rehoboth and do some shopping.

Sit at the inlet and figure out how the bay meets the ocean with such tremendous force.

Grab a bench on the boardwalk and watch the world go by.

You're a lucky duck to be at the beach and retired!

Glad you're here.

Welcome Hevyn. Glad you joined our fun group.

Chatty,
What are doing with a tub in your garden? How many people can you get in your shower? That sounds naughty. Teehee...

Hi Lola, jabber & Dotsie. I'm very glad to be here.

Dotsie, Hon, I appreciate the suggestions! I do the bench on the boardwalk thing, often sit near a restaurant that has a reggae band performing on their deck. We were living near Wilmington, Delaware when we both lost our jobs (worked at the same hotel & it closed) & my husband had a job offer at a boardwalk hotel, so we took a chance and came here. No regrets at all! I never dreamed I'd be able to walk to the ocean. Well, better go get some Thrasher's Fries & Taffy, as instructed.....

Jabber my shower as I stated would fit 3 comfortably and 4 if you squeeze closer together. They call it a garden tub because its under a huge stained glass window, is oval shaped and very large, two people could have lots of fun in there. Compared to the old days when a bathroon was almost too small for 2 people to be in at the same time, tiny shower and skinny little bathtub.

Hey, what are Thrasher french fries? Is that the business name or what?

Hi Chatty - Thrasher's French Fries has been on the boardwalk in Ocean City since 1929. They fry their potatoes in peanut oil & they have a rather distinctive taste. (Seagulls will hover over your fries as you walk along - they get alot of dropped ones.)In my opinion they really over charge - but no one seems to mind standing in long lines all summer long.

My, your garden tub sounds lovely. Must be nice to have a roomy B-Room.

Also, about the french fries - they are served with vinegar instead of ketchup. They are my favorite junk food at the beach.

The Brits also put vinegar in their fries (or chips as they call it here). They even have salt and vinegar flavoured potato chips (crisps as they call it here). LOL! I've just done a "tomayto tomahto".
