Fitts Beach Trip Rapidly Approaching

As snowfall blankets the East Coast and the Midwest enters its "polar plunge", we are once again reminded of the nearness of the annual family beach vacation to the Outer Banks. A winter chest cold makes us realize that a sunburn really isn't all that bad. Freezing rain stirs memories of icy pops, family sledding trips bring to mind the thrill of watching Uncle Bill ride Jazmine's boogie board, and smoothies (only for girls of course) seem that much more appetizing as the temperature plummets faster than the elevator in our new house (whoo!).

With this in mind, we remember that 172 days is less than half of a year. We're on the homestretch everyone, and it's Jamaican me crazy!

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! New house for 2009 Vacation!

Titled Fun In The Sun, this year's house is one for the ages. Featuring 6 Master Bedrooms, parking for 13 vehicles, a max occupancy of 20 people (we'll have to hold a block party, clearly), and its very own guest home, the house for the 2009 trip is by far the most extravagant to date. 

The house is located in the Whalehead community, situated between Duck and Corolla. An aerial map of the community can found here (our house is # J40922). 

The reservation date is July 19th thru the 26th. Further information regarding the house, including photo slideshows and a list of the many amenities, can be reached here
