This weekend we decided to spend a day driving along the Outer Banks. We left right after work on Friday and headed north. When we got to our stop for the night, we were treated to a pretty sunset. We went for a walk for some ice cream and we went by the Wright Brothers Monument. We got up early…
We have had some beautiful weather while we have been here. We have been taking advantage of it by spending lots of time by the pool, walking on the beach, and riding our bikes around town. Here are some pictures from our rides/walks around town. The enjoy watching these boats coming into the port. They are always followed by lots…
This weekend we got up bright and early to go for a bike ride to see the sunrise. It was a nice cool morning and we were even lucky enough to see dolphins while we were out. After our bike ride we headed back to pack up for a weekend in Rockingham. We were able to have a cookout with…
We have just finished our first week here in Southport, NC. We have enjoyed taking daily bike rides, including riding to and from work everyday. Funny thing, the surgical tech that is orienting me, went to high school with me. She graduated 2 years before me, but we played on the same softball team. Small world. Here are some pictures…
Our home for the next 13 weeks will be the cute little beach town of Southport, NC. I guess you can say we like the coast since every one of our assignments has been right at the coast. We went down to secure our place to live and take a quick look at the town. It looks like it will…
Last night, I went to the Carolina Panther Draft Party at Bank of America Stadium. My brother had gotten tickets to this event and was nice enough to invite my mom and I to go with him. None of us had ever been to the draft party so we weren’t exactly sure what to expect but we had fun! We…
We started our family and friends visits with a stop at Virginia Tech to see our niece Emmalyn. The drive was very pretty with everything so green and the red buds in bloom. It was nice to see her and her family. She took us on a quick tour of the campus. Virginia Tech is a beautiful campus. Only wish…
Yesterday we said goodbye to Maine and headed south. We really enjoyed all of our adventures in Maine and I really enjoyed the hospitals and people I worked with this go around. I met lots of other travelers this time, and who knows, maybe we will end up at the same place again somewhere else. Maine must have done something…
Well, we are down to our last 4 days in Maine. We made the most of our last weekend here and some great weather and got out and saw a few new places and revisited a couple. Thursday night we went for a post sunset walk to Portland Head Light. It was neat to be able to see the lighthouse…
Spring has sprung! Flowers are blooming and the temperatures are getting into the 50’s. The other night we walked to Willard Beach and because the tide was so low, we continued on to Spring Point Lighthouse. Here are a few pictures. I guess in Maine the saying goes April SNOW showers bring May flowers. Monday while at work it began…
