We hope you have enjoyed the summer issue of the
Skimbaco Lifestyle Magazine. Here, at Skimbaco, we believe in living life to the fullest. To us, that means spending time with our families. We’ve slowed down on our writing this summer because we’re traveling and building family memories.
I just returned from my 9th year vacationing at
Topsail Beach, N.C, and I am currently in Myrtle Beach. You can follow my coastal summer photos on Instagram as
HinesSightBlog, and here are some of my photos from our family trip to Topsail Beach.
I hope you are busy making memories with your family this summer, too.
Frolicking in the ocean.
Spending less time online, and more time capturing sunsets.
If you are on the Carolina coast, you must also eat fried shrimp and hushpuppies like I do on vacation.
Each year, we visit the
Breezeway Restaurant on Topsail Island. This is not a fancy restaurant, and the motel adjacent to it is even less fancy, but the food can’t be beat.
In fact, I think it has the best hushpuppies in the entire state of N.C.
Other nights on the island, we dined in our beach rental and feasted on fresh shrimp.
And we shucked corn straight from the farm.
A coastal lifestyle is about kicking back, soaking up the atmosphere, and enjoying great eats. Be sure to check out Katja’s article on
Coastal Food in the latest issue of Skimbaco Lifestyle Magazine and experience some great seafood recipes from around the world.
