Since Maryland was colonized first, Ocean City, MD is the real OC. Screw those Californians and their posh Orange County. Give me some Fishers Popcorn and a ticket to the Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum and I forget all about designer purses and beach-front mansions. Good thing, since we can't afford them anyway...
We went to OC for a tournament with Jimbo's softball team,
Real Chill, and had such a great time. Having never spent time in Ocean City, I figured it was on par with Myrtle Beach, SC, -- not a complement since Myrtle and I do not see eye-to-eye.
I stand corrected.
Ocean City has a bit of everything and is HUGE compared to Myrtle. I loved the boardwalk, and the kids couldn't get enough of the Ferris wheel. --Hilarious sidebar: Jimmy is terrified of heights, so he just about committed suicide on the ride. It's hard to find anything that scares Mr. Macho, so I quite enjoyed watching him squirm. -- Bruce and Tracy even came on Saturday to help show me around the town and watch one of Jimmy's games. It was great. Totally worth the money and I can't wait for our next trip.
The kids were WONDERFUL, so I have no complaints there, but I also look forward to a kid-less trip. Maybe next time... wanna babysit?!

At least one is jazzed to be on the Ferris wheel! |

Blood runs deep with these two. |

Monkey see, monkey do! |

Tracy's a bathing beauty until she gets clobbered. |

Love me some Uncle Bruce. He's a kid and (obviously) babe magnet. |

Nothing like an Ashton greeting. |
Damons afraid of heights too next time we will get them both on the ferris wheel and watch them squirm together! >:)
