It is July. The weather warms and our thoughts turn to getting away from the baking northeast and heading to the always comfortable Outer Banks.
This year we will provide a one blog covers all rather than attempting a day by day recap (at our age just remembering that we were in North Carolina last week is solid long and short term memory). As you can tell by the feeble attempts at witty repartee Mike is authoring this version (don't be surprised if Harriet doesn't provide some revisionist history).
Anyway on Saturday the 12th we awoke in the middle of the night and actually loaded the car quickly, with no arguments (will wait until you recover from that piece of astonishing news). Shared the driving and had minimal traffic issues, arriving at Dunes South about 3:45 (Nina was waiting).
Got settled in, ate dinner and then caught a little bit of a sunset from the deck.
Of course a good bit of time had been spent oohing and aahing over all the improvements to the unit.
New stairs and siding:
A new front door (from the inside):
New furniture downstairs in the two small bedrooms:
And upstairs in the living room:
And way upstairs in the loft:
And surprise - can you guess who the photogapher is??
Think that is enough excitement for one day (for me). The saga will continue at some point in the future.

Beautiful sunset! Hmm, the place looks pretty much the same as I remember it, but I guess it has been a few years since I made it to the OBX.
Everything looks great, like the new changes. And beautiful sunset, must have been such a nice way to finish a long day driving.
