Runaways

Joe and I ran away last week. We hadn't been down to Cape May in quite a while, and hadn't spent a night at The Mainstay in a couple of years. The room rates had become uncomfortable for us. But we got to missing that porch of theirs and Joe has been overwhelmed by a project that's currently taking over his life and me, well, I'm always good for a trip to Cape May.

The weekday rates before the end of May are actually tolerable, and so we booked the Harrison Room for last Thursday. We left right after school and had an uneventful drive down. Our kids had given us a gift certificate to one of the loveliest restaurants and we went there for dinner.

Spent the whole day Friday, relaxing on that porch, shopping, driving out to the Point, and actually investigating another bed and breakfast where we will plan to stay next autumn for a weekend. Nice fish dinner on Friday and we were on our way home.

Runaways. That's us.
