Ocean Side B&B

This was what I first gazed upon when entering the back yard of the ocean view Bed & Breakfast. To me the wonderful vignette of three lounge chairs lined in a row looked like a big piece of pastel ribbon candy. There by invitation only to attend a wine tasting, inn tour and the enjoy the panorama of the Atlantic Ocean, it was a splendid time. Delicious food, great wines but most enjoyable where the boats sailing to and fro in the harbor of New Bedford, Massachusetts, rich with whaling history.
Enjoy...

I wouldnt mind kicking back in one of those chairs and sipping on wine...In fact, I would love it and I am not sure if anyone could ever get me to leave! :)

They make me wish I had a raspberry ripple ice-cream.
I don't see anything like that here, only the obligatory uniform of brown stained pub benches and tables. I'll probably go and see some pink ones now just to make me look a fool. I'll let you know if I do.

They look very inviting. Who wouldn't want to sit and watch the boats go by? This picture makes me miss the East Coast. What a great way to spend the afternoon.

If I look closely, I'm sure the middle one has a little sign 'Reserved for Millie.' Hope you are enjoying all your Summer days Karen.

I'll take one of those seats too right next to Miss Millie! Why oh why does the work week get crazy busy on Friday morning when I have plans tonight! Wishing I were still on holiday sitting in a chair like these... might just close my eyes for a sec and take a mental vacation!

Seems the pink chair is still unclaimed so I'll take it and spend the day enjoying the view.
