First things first

We spent our first overnights in the beach house this week. It took three days to do a major and thorough cleaning of the floors, walls, ceilings and fixtures. The picture below illustrates how much accumulated dust and grime we were dealing with. These are the same exact clear fixtures except one has been cleaned . Yikes.

While in New Smyrna Beach, we were able to take a swim in the ocean each day and take several bicycle rides on the beach. The sand is very hard packed making this possible.
