I had the good fortune to be invited to the beach for a weekend reunion with former roommates & suitemates to celebrate our milestone birthdays this year. . .
The six of us happy & lucky to have a friend/roommate with access to a beach house. . .
Enjoying the scenery while reminiscing on our college years . . .
Reflecting on old times. . .
As we had just begun to spread our wings. . .
Strolling on the beach. . .
Catching up on the status of classmates. . .
Basking in each other’s company. . .
And enjoying good meals & conversation . . .
Many thanks to our generous hostess and also to our talented chef for our weekend of fun :)

Looks like you had a lovely time! The beach and houses….the sunrises…the gulls…..all absolutely gorgeous….thank you for taking us along with you!
Amazing pics Mary! I’m sure you had a great weekend, it truly looks beautiful-enjoy:@)
As always, Mary, beautiful photography. What a treat you had! Treasured memories.
Happy 30th Birthday! It WAS only your 30th, right??? *wink* Whatever the year, it looks like you had a grand time celebrating it with good friends.
Your gorgeous shots remind me of Hilton Head but I see you categorized it as Pawley’s Island, SC. Same area, anyway. My DD used to live on HH & we always enjoyed our visits there.
Are you 21 ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!???????????? It looks and sounds like a wonderful weekend! You had a CHEF!!?? Now, THAT would make it 1000 times better! Great shots, amazed that you got the bird with his CATCH! XO, Pinky
What a gorgeous place and a perfect setting for a reunion! Sounds like a great time.
Looks like you had perfect weather for this wonderful occasion. Love the shot of the bird with the fish in its mouth…great timing!
Oh what a beautiful setting, and some gorgeous photos! Glad you had such a wonderful time. Thanks for sharing! xoxo
That’s my favorite place to be! Love your photos…especially those reflections! ♥
Mary, I love how you used the photos of the birds as you wrote about your classmates. You managed to convey the spirit of friends reuniting without showing a single person. You are a very talented lady!
Great photos. Love the reflection of the cottage in the puddle.
Amazing images from the beach. I liked the reflections.
Beautiful beachy photos.
Wonderful photos!
Thanks for sharing. Have a nice week,

Mary the pics are fabulous! Sounds like a wonderful time. I am the one with the beach house and I hosted my college sorority sisters. I was the chef though! No one has reciprocated yet, still waiting! :)
It was fun though and some drove over 10 hours to get here.
I am sure you will remember the good time you had for a long time!
And happy 30 th birthday! :)
Travel brochure…yep…these wonderful photos should be a travel brochure…it makes me want to visit this location!!!
Lucky you, to have attended a reunion in such a beautiful setting. I’m sure there was lots off walking and talking on that beach!
What a fabulous time you are going to have. Enjoy every moment. V
Stunning scenery. Magnificent photography.
a lovely photo collection; I especially liked the catch of the day; it looked so big for that water-bird.
Your photos are beautiful. And I like the photos on your sidebar and I am looking at it right now too. Happy Wednesday!
Watery Wednesday

The photos of the homes on the beach take me back to my summers at gma’s house in Cape May… now I am living close to the beach but my area has new homes and hotels and it’s just not the same… lovely photos!
