Dirt Road Adventures: Breezy Spring, Thrifting, and more!
Happy Sunday, and welcome to Dirt Road Adventures! This is where we review all the exciting events behind the scenes, on the website, and the sources of inspiration I discovered online during the past week. This weekly recap ensures you don’t miss any of our adventures here at the end of our Dirt Road.
Hey Friends,
Spring is here! We decided to head to the beach to enjoy the first few days of Spring, but the March winds came with us. Even Rudy didn’t like walking in the wind and would rather lay on the bed. LOL!
We hope to see the wind settle and enjoy a few days of shopping, thrifting, and visiting our favorite restaurants. I did a little shopping at Spruced Wilmington on Friday and found some cute vintage art for Easter. I can’t wait to share how I update the frames. The shop had some adorable Easter decorations.
On Saturday, a friend and I had a delicious lunch at Brasserie du Soleil, followed by more retail therapy.
