4 Oct.
No service so not clear when this will go. Several days is my guess.
Rural ride from beaufort to ceder point – ocracoke ferry. Strong headwind quite wearing on both of us, I took the picture.
Katie's breakfast pie and seeing miss NC in her tiara started the day off right. Asking the manager a question lead to "I do not read the newspaper or listen to the weather as both are too depressing. "
Four nights in a row of excellent meals. Tonight.
QB had a large plate of shelled blue crab.
For me,
Grilled bluefish, crepes filled with blue crab, grilled shrimp and of course scallops. Strongly suspect that Bobbie's dinner was similar except his had no veggies or fish or crepes.
We passed on the dessert.
5 October in Hatteras
Had planned to be in Buxton where the Hatteras lighthouse is (found out about this a bit late) but Buxton was sold out. Not a room to be had.
Ride along the dunes to the ferry was hot, hot, humid, windy and very beautiful. Saw the wild ponies of Ocracoke. Brought, it is believed, by a European shipwreck in the 16th or 17th century. Now fenced in. They have more ribs and more vertebra than our usual horses.
Dinner in Hatteras was Frogmore Stew, called here Hatteras Stew. See pictures we took in Charleston many trips ago . Forgot to take the camera to dinner.
The cell phone worked for about 5 minutes in the past 24 hours so no idea if this will go out today or tomorrow.
As to youses: has anyone sent their short research on the fish called "wahoo"? Better known as ????
