I finally, with the help of my wife Joyce, packed the car and will leave early in the morning for the outer bank. I'll let you know what we did when we return in a week. We will take our time and stop at "the cotton gin", "the bird store" and of course "awful authors" to name a few.

Bodie Island will shine in my window at night as I return to my great granddad's haunting life and legend. Weather is breaking so it looks like we will have an enjoyable vacation.

Talk to you in a week.
