Vinny Guadagnino returns to SEaside Heights, leaves beach house with Ronnie and Pauly D

It’s been one week since Vinny Guadagnino stormed out of the Jersey Shore Seaside Heights beach house and returned to his home in Staten Island, allegedly never to return. But, it seems all Vinny needed was some drama-free R&R away from his cast mates to revitalize his GTL spirit because he was photographed earlier today with the rest of the guys looking as though they were loading up to go on a road trip together!

TMZ reported yesterday that Vinny was having dinner with the rest of the cast and crew later that night and if things went well he could very well return. Apparently things did go well – which comes as a bit of a surprise to the folks at TMZ who have sources reporting that Vinny was being a bit of a Guidhole and they were actually happy to see him go.

As you might expect, some fans and blogs are speculating the whole thing is a big drama-packed publicity stunt, but either way I’m just glad to get ol’ Vinny back in the fold. His “good guy” almost shy demeanor serves as a great contrast to the rest of the cast and I think he was an integral ingredient to the Jersey Shore’s successful recipe. (Unlike Angelina, who was a bit like parsley or some other disposable garnish.)
