Last minute I was invited out to my long time great friend's summer home on Long Island in the beach town of Oakdale. I have been coming here since I was in middle school, spending about a week here during the summers. It was so nice to be able to come back for a quick weekend trip!
This little beach community is so unique. Everyone knows everyone since most of the families have owned homes here for a couple generations. The community is made up of small bungalows like this one. They are all so unique and all combine together to make the sweetest town.
We went out on the boat, something I haven't done since last summer! Reminds me of great times spent on the lake in Texas. But unlike Texas, we took a quick boat ride to the beach! How lucky am I that I now live in a city where the beach is just a short train or car ride away?
Couldn't get enough of these gorgeous views. We lucked out with only a little bit of rain followed by beautifully clear skies and lots of sun (trust me I have a sunburn to prove it)
It was so much fun catching up with old friends as well as making new ones! Lucky that I have a friend in the city who also has great friends that I get to spend time with!
Great greenery on Fire Island. Here is a picturesque view while making our way out to the beach on the island.
We spent today at the beach on the bay in the neighborhood (see pic below). Such a relaxing weekend in such a pretty place!
To say I am exhausted after such a fun filled weekend is an understatement -- but making such fun memories is what I live for! Last minute trips are perfectly unplanned and so sweet that they easily become some of my favorite!
