It’s been raining all day and it’s supposed to rain all weekend so I will definitely need my umbrella. Hope I don’t need a life preserver

Spotted this car in Annapolis. It was in beautiful condition. My husband’s first car was a blue Ford Falcon and it had a standard shift

Just returned from a few days in the Outer Banks. We stayed at the White Doe Bed and Breakfast in Manteo The breakfasts were 4 courses. One morning we had biscuits and gravy and another morning we had grits. The afternoon snacks were delicious. Highly recommend it.

Decided to drive to the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. There are 158,000 acres in the Refuge. We actually saw an alligator
We did not see any bears even though there are bears in the Refuge
Spotted these pretty flowers along the road

Drove to Wanchese, a nearby fishing village to see if we could find a wooden bowl at a local shop. They did not have the bowl we wanted but did get a couple of good photos. The shop did have some fishing floats for sale for 150 dollars. We still have two floats that we bought in Japan years ago. Guess we should have bought more than 2.
We then headed to Jockey Ridge State Park to check out the sand dunes. We only walked a bit on the trail because it was just too windy the park has the tallest active sand dune system in the eastern United States
Then we headed to the Wright Brothers National Memorial
Forecasters predicted rain around 8 pm tonight so figured there would not be much of a sunset so we went around 5:30

We drove to Cape Hatteras today and saw two lighthouses along the way. The top photo is the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and it was built in 1870 and is the worlds second tallest brick lighthouse at 198.5 feet.
The Bodie Island Lighthouse was built in 1872 and has its original 1st order Fresnel lens
Also stopped to see the ocean
The innkeeper was kind enough to tell us where to go to see the sunset
