🍴☀️ 🌊 EAT, STAY & PLAY at OCEAN ISLE BEACH NC with us! LIVING GRATEFULLY travel vlog SPRING 2022
#livinggratefully #travelvlogs #oceanislebeach
My favorite Bible verse is Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor:
If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
We like to take long weekend trips and do travel vlogs 📸 to share what we 🍴 eat, where we go and what we do. We also create DIY, decorating, decluttering, vlog style, hauls and cooking videos too. Since I love to clean I also post cleaning inspiration videos and I usually share some tips and hacks in those videos as well!
All in hopes to help you out in some way. Whether it’s inspiring you to clean, or to travel, or to fix something, or to make something better, or to solve a problem, or to be grateful, or to make a yummy meal for someone, or to ....
just about anything!! We just hope to help you out in some way.
💗 P L E A S E S U B S C R I B E 💗
I’d be super grateful! 🙏

Enjoyed this video very much. Thank you for sharing. Made me homesick for my second home. Haven’t been back in over 2 years and I miss it terribly. The pace, music and sound of your voice makes the video very enjoyable. What a lovely couple. God bless. 🙏🏼 Happy new year 🎉🎊and keep the OIB videos coming. ❤️

[@lyn5150]

Yay! i’m so glad you posted another one of these vids! i love ur travel vids. Great Video!!❤️

[@LivingGratefully]

Yay! Thank you so much for watching!! Now we need to plan another trip so we can post another one! Have a great July 4th weekend! 🎉

[@frankfarmer3048]

I really enjoyed watching your ocean isle video! My family and I have been visiting there almost every year since the 1980s and have seen it grow in many ways while staying unchanged in many ways. I can offer you and Scott many ideas and suggestions for places to visit, things to do, and places to eat in the surrounding areas.

[@katedevlin9589]

i have a beach house there, and i go to the same places!

[@silviamullinax6180]

We love ocean isle beach. We are returning this summer ! Great video.

[@tomomasta3254]

My family used to go to sunset beach right next door for 20 years every summer.. we used to visit my aunt and uncle who would be at ' the winds' hotel in ocean isle .. man I miss those days...such a nice place....

[@LivingGratefully]

Hi Tom, that’s a nice memory thank you so much for sharing with us! Have you been back to sunset and ocean isle lately? If not you must go! And we need to take a trip to Sunset next time we are at OIB!

[@tomomasta3254]

@@LivingGratefully no,unfortunately I haven't been back in years.. my father passed, and it wouldn't be the same... Can remember so far back when sunset didn't have many beachouses at all, now it's filled up......and our many many trips to calabash to eat at the seafood restaurants and play minny golf.... Love seeing channels like yours that bring back those memories...

[@DetectorMoe]

I think I was in this video, my channel is about metal detecting and I hit OIB a lot, if you look on far right around 16:17 ... lol

So funny! When we went in early May to OIB, we stayed in the exact same condo complex! It was exactly the same, just decorated a little differently. We love it too and we can't wait to go back another time and try some new restaurants! So glad you had a great time! We usually go to Corolla, NC in the Outer Banks (we love it there the most), but we have been trying some new beaches recently in NC and SC. :)

[@LivingGratefully]

+Shelley Gillum Hi friend!!! That is so very cool that you were at the same place! The outer banks is nice too - really anywhere on the coast of NC & SC makes us happy!

New sub here! So glad I came across your channel. My husband and I are going to the exact same condo here pretty soon. Is there any tips or dues or don’ts or likes or dislikes that you could share with me about the condo or the surrounding area.

[@LivingGratefully]

Hi Shelly! Welcome! I’m so glad **too** that you came across us! I’m sitting here with scott and we can’t think of anything at all as far as dislikes or concerns or donts ! Are you staying in the same exact one that we stayed in -110? (Jennifer hall is the host) If so that is so cool! You saw where it was chilly when we went - with our sweatshirts on a lot - we went off season. you get to go when the weather is nice and you can sun bathe either at the pool or the beach! Yay! You can walk to a lot of places but we didn’t do much of that because of my back. It’s the perfect location for that though! We love OIB and we hope you have a blast!

[@hrrwilliams3941]

@LivingGratefully Thanks for sharing. I've never visited this area; however, it looks beautiful. Did you rent your condo via VRBO?

[@LivingGratefully]

Hi! Yes, we rented through VRBO and we have always had great experiences using VRBO. I read all the comments / reviews to get a good feel of the place before we go. Thank you so much for watching and for leaving a comment for us! If you want the specific link to the condo let me know and I’ll send it to you! Cathy

Hi Eric, the music is from Epidemic Sound. It’s a monthly subscription and the link is in the description box if you want to check out the epidemic sound website. We love the music too!

I think an important piece of the puzzle at OIB was the policy of no high rises. It set the tone for the whole island.
