Since Sam has been working his butt off and hasn't had a day off to spend with me for 2 weeks and running now... I went on a little mini vacation with my parents and sister. We use to go to Cape May, NJ when we were little kids. We always stayed at this old historic victorian inn called The Chalfonte. The place is so neat and with no air conditioning or other "white noise" you can hear the original wood floors creak as people walk up and down the halls and you can sleep with the windows open and listen to the sounds of the carriage horses walking the streets, little kids laughing and the ocean breeze blowing. There also are no private baths in your room so you always meet new people while using the shared hallway baths! Breakfast and dinner are included in your stay and they are delicious... particularly the homemade yeast rolls! This is the first time we've been to Cape May since we were kids and it is the first time we've gotten to eat in the formal dining room with the adults... as children we were always banished to the "children's dining room" which was our parent's favorite part of the vacation! We had a great time reliving old memories and relaxing on the porch of The Chalfonte and on the beach. It would have been perfect if only Sam had been there! I was even gone for his birthday (bad wife) although it didn't matter since he had duty which means he went to work at 5:30am and didn't come home until after the work day the NEXT day! We were going to celebrate his birthday this weekend, but he hasn't been home before 10pm yet this weekend to make it happen!
