Thanksgiving Trip
Going places of-season is great....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. 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. All in all was a great trip, albeit a bit chilly at times, but the sun was shining for the most part and the winds finally dropped down today so you didn't feel scoured when on the beach. I posted some pics on my Webshots site plus some from 2 weeks ago when the weather was still more clement than inclement out on Atlantic Beach. http://community.webshots.com/user/katysails |

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. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

North American ???? so "of-season" means 'out-of-season'...who would know!!! LP (thinking Joe and katysails might want to take spelling 101) |
