Life's a beach

Today we loaded up the tenders with the bikes, coolers, back packs, and beach chairs and headed for the dingy dock. When we arrived at the dingy dock, we unloaded the bikes, put them together, loaded the coolers and back packs on the bikes, strapped the beach chairs to our backs and headed for the beach. WHEW! It's alot of work to go to the beach. Okracoke beach is one of the top five beaches in the world, and we weren't disappointed. There were alot of people at the beach, but the beach is about 12 miles long and wide, wide, wide, so it didn't seem crowded. We had a great time playing in the surf (especially Tammy our beach and water baby) watching the surfers, sticking our toes in the sand, and soaking up some of the NC sun. Tomorrow we are going to go back and bring the boogy board with us (one more thing to load) and play in the huge waves. Look for us on the 6 o'clock news tomorrow night. "Rescue at Ocracoke Beach". On the way back to the boats, we stopped part way at Howard's Pub for a couple of cold ones and a cheeseburger to replenish our liquids and replenish our strength for the rest of the trip home. HEY! What did you expect, we still had over a half mile to go. I will take pictures tomorrow, but I worn you, it could be ugly. BOOGY!!!

Birds on an island just off the coast of Ocracoke

The birds were going crazy because it is a nesting area, so we took a couple pictures and left
