Going places of-season is great....

Sh-ssh! Not so loud, you want the place to be overrun?? It's
only 'out-of-season' because most business concessions out
there are making plenty of money from all the dummies that
go out there thru the baking-hot summer months, and they are
either skiing in the Rockies or relaxing at slightly warmer
beaches slightly further south.


... we drove out to Cedar Island and took the
ferry across to ocaracoke and then drove up the National Swashore to
Hatteras and on to Nags Head and Kitty Hawl; then we backtracked to RRoanoke
Island and back home through the marsh and swamp on Alligaror
Highway...visited 3 lighthouses: Ocarcoke, Hatteras, and Bodie, took
Chopper for a long walk on the beach in the mroning, visited the Wright
Brothers Memorial Park, the Fort Raleigh/Lost Colony Park, and the NC
Aquarium.

Sounds like a great trip. We haven't been to the Aquarium in
a long time, did you go to Fort Macon too?

... Then we ate the best BBQ I've ever had at a place called Fred's
in a little burg out in the seamp on the way home.

Hmm, I hope you can give us directions to Fred's later. I am
definitely interested in this BBQ.

Thanks for posting the pics.
