Walk on the beach

After eating and returning to "Ocean Pines" we unpacked and took a
walk on the beach. From our condo, it was a nice walk to the last
condo which was on the beach. The timeshare has a pool, tennis court,
swing/playset about like ours but not quiet. Also a game room and
maybe a workout room. Each condo has 4 units. I'll post a pic
tomorrow.

With a half moon, perfect weather, we walked and sometimes ran down
the beach. C & R ran into the edge of the water and even took a spill
or two. The water was pretty cool, almost a shock when first contact
was made. Crabs were out in force. That really topped off the
evening. Not the silver dollar size and smaller in the gulf, these
guys were as big as my hand. Nothing to reference in the pic.

We should sleep well tonight. Tomorrow is recovery day/beach bum
day. No "Driving"!

Steamed Jumbo Shrimp

Jane Anna, Clay, and Anita had Jumbo shrimp with a spicy seasoning
while Carson had a clam basket and Ryder a shrimp basket. This place
would be great to eat outside and watch the sunset across the Sound.

Top floor Timeshare

Top floor of C & A's timeshare. Second floor has two bedrooms and two
baths. From the deck u can see "The Cuurituck Sound". On the other
side of the resort is the Atlantic Ocean.

Sunset Grill & Raw Bar

Thank goodness they had a pier to walk the restless natives.

Pier at Sunset Grill

We are now in Duck, NC. Been a long ride today. We are eating dinner
at a restaraunt on the water. I'm having one of tonight's specials:
broiled scallops, crab, garlic potatoes , and corn on the cob.

Lunch at Captain Bill's in Morehead City, across the bridge from
Atlantic Beach.

Fort Macon

Arrived at Fort Macon. Hope to post more pics tonight. It was built
in the early 1800's and reinforced over the years. Cost nearly
$500,000 to construct. Utilized during the Civil War, Spanish-
American, and WWII.
