Outer Banks Part 1 of ??

Alright Now!! Hopefully you can all forgive me for not wanting to sit in front of the cpu during this hot summer. It's tropical storm season now, so it's much cooler and wetter.


So let's take a look back at a warmer time - our summer vacation to the outer banks of North Carolina.

Here's Morgan warming up to the day

And Morgan's friend (cousin) Emma, with her rating board, tracking the activity of the house. Morgan kicked off the vacation with a little illness and was a bit whiny which relegated him to crazy status. Although I began the trip in good standing, I ended up on the bad list.

I believe this is your typical end of the roll (exhaust the batteries) shot. Notice to the left of my head, the cabinets have a roll of paper towels on top of them...who can even reach up there? (ME!)



It rained one day while we were there and on one side of the pool the patio was graded such that the water ran in...which led to lots of dirt, etc. getting in the pool. The frogs however...well there's really no explanation.

We went to some shopping area one day, the only saving grace was this playground and some go kart loop that Morgan and I got to watch about a dozen or so races on.

We went to a lighthouse that you were able to ascend, but there was a line and Emma was in charge of keeping Morgan in it.

I don't remember how many steps there were to the top, but it was a lot and I made Morgan climb everyone of them. Who's gonna have a good nap today?? Morgan is!!

Once Morgan and I repelled off the top of the lighthouse (pictures not available), Morgan gave this tree a stern talking to by beating it with it's own limbs...you can bet that the other trees in the area took notice of this!!
