farewell, spring break

Although I graduated last May, I wasn't ready to fully let go of Spring Break this year. So, I participated with my girlfriends. We didn't need to go on a trip, although Vegas was a thought we threw around quite a bit. Instead, we stayed close to home and pretended we were on a fabulous vacay.

We laid our towels out by the edge of the pool, dipped our toes in the cold water, and worked on our tans. We barbecued. Well, my dear friend, Stephanie did. She's the only one who knew how to work the grill. Those were some tasty hot dogs and burgers. We celebrated St. Patty's Day in our green get-ups. We played card games. We tried out new restaurants. We lounged on the couch and watched a Sex and the City marathon.

It was truly the perfect week with friends, and a nice break from our typical routine. It will be sad to see Spring Break go, but it will also be nice to get back on track with writing, work, and going to the gym.
