Sunday morning I got up early and rented a wet suit and surfboard and hit the beach:
After an hour of 'hanging 10' I got packed up and checked out ot the "Com ort Inn" at Nag's Head (sign damaged due to Isabel):
I stopped at the Wright Brothers Memorial which is gearing up for the Celebration of 100 years of flight on December 17. It was not a particularly impressive site, looks nothing like it did 100 years ago (sand dunes then, cut grass and woods now.)
Headed north to Virginia Beach and a visit to the Cape Henry Lighthouses.
Old Cape Henry viewed from the beach area. That's a 'yellow ribbon' tied about the old girl

That's it for this trip. Five Lighthouses and two Lifesaving Stations and I climbed three of the five. Heading back to Arizona at 8 AM ET Monday morning.
Lots of good times, met some old friends, met some friends I've talked to and emailed, but never met before and made some new lighthouse friends!
The Lighthouse Stickers were well-received at Saturday night's dinner.
