Hey there gypsea mermaids....
After eating all that Easter candy,
This gal needs to get some exercise to pull off
those extra pounds of chocolate attached to her thighs!
And what better way to burn those calories?
SURF!!!!!!!
(or beach combing of course!)
And since this mermaid is heading back down to Florida this week!
WOO HOO!
To sign the papers to her mermaid shack....
Providing her back holds out
She is getting up on a board!
So as most of us girls know, the one most dreaded thing we hate the most is
TRYING ON BATHING SUITS!
UGH!
How am I to ever catch a Pirate looking like a beached whale?
I look back at Vintage ads..the bathing beauties...
And they were curvy...
yeh they had a few pounds..
But they looked great in those suits!
See? Now why can't I pull that off?
Looks like she caught herself a "pirate' huh?
Maybe I just need to order some suits from Tulle..
and be done with it.
Because even as I sit here and type
(eating Chruscik,,with EXTRA powdered sugar!!)
I am getting myself back to these days.
Right here.
Watch out Pirates...
Here I come!!!

I loved the Beach Boys! I guess I still do but I just don't hear them as often these days.
ReplyDeleteHave fun in the Sunshine State!
Great post. I remember suits like that and sure enjoyed seeing the vintage ads.
ReplyDeleteCricket, Nice to meet ya neighbor!! That Jersey town you were wondering about is North Wildwood, right across the inlet from you. Now you got me wondering what part of Florida you are heading to. Have a great time there.
ReplyDeleteYou go girl!!!
ReplyDeleteJust hearing the song and seeing your photos put a smile on my face. Have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

What a panic!! My florida house is also on the Gulf Coast, 1 hour below Tampa- St Pete's in Manasota Key Florida. Funny that we are practically neighbors in both States. And I will have to remember that sea glass festival in October, my Senior will be going to college up in Long Branch this September, so I will surely check out that festival. I never even knew about it. Thanks for the tip off. Damn it's a small world!! Have fun in S.H. My favorite place to have lunch there is the Green Cuisine. And of course Stone Cold Creamery!
ReplyDeleteyay! I love this post so much! And those pictures! So gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteOh this is fabulous!!! love it all.. and of course reminds me of the gidget movies!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a lovely easter.. ciao xxx Julie
