I was going to do this for TILT (Things I Love Thursday) but didn’t have time, so here it is for Friday.
I do love a funky little beach town like Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where you can walk the boardwalk and look at the ocean.
Where beautiful old houses are turned into beautiful restaurants
with bold colors,
pretty windows,
colorful awnings
and sunlit potted plants.
Then, just across the street you spy this:
I love old cars.
More on Monday. Great weekend, everyone.

Fun photos. I love bright colors and old cars too.
Have a great weekend!
Thanks, Jeanne. You too!

I love the colors of the house in Rehoboth, too. I just went to Rehoboth for the first time last summer. I’ve lived in MD most of my life, and I’d never been!
I didn’t grow up here, so I think that’s why I like to explore different parts of the D.C. area. But I’ve also inherited my dad’s curiosity. He wanted to see and do everything he could.
The beach shot looks antique – like a weathered postcard. Nice!
That colorful house is just begging to have its photo taken. Reminds me of those rainbow houses in Charleston, SC.
Have a nice weekend.
Thanks! I added some processing to the beach shot for a vintage look.
Love all the bright colors! That first shot is my favorite, it looks like an old vintage photo 🙂
Mindy, I used Florabella’s vintage action on it.
It’s amazing what strong colours can do to an old house like that but I also love the shot with the boardwalk. Puts me in a summer mood.
Great weekend to you too.
Those old Victorians were originally painted bright colors, then everything went to white. Now that they’re being restored, the vivid colors are making a comeback.
I love the shore towns along the mid-atlantic coast. I haven’t seen anything like them out here along the pacific. No boardwalks, for one thing.
No, no boardwalks, but there are some funky little towns near San Diego. Leudadia, Cardiff, Encinitas, etc. The two coasts are soooo different, though.
