Thank you Hanna for being so kind of keeping so quiet whilst I slept. If it hadn’t been for the puddles in the parking lot and the leaves in the pool I would have not even realized you came.
You can see more pictures, again, on my Flickr page.
I have grown up near the Chesapeake Bay and even heading down to Nags Head each summer. But for some reason I never really took advantage of what a great feeling it was to breathe in the salt air and to hear the sound of the ocean each morning and night. But this past week the ladyfriend and I headed to Nags Head to visit with my momma and the Strickland part of the fam (as well as cousins Jenny and Brian) to stay in the Bond Cottage (one of the original 13 cottages in Nags Head) for a couple of days.
The cottage was awesome as you can see in these pictures. It had that wainescoating, wooden floor, seashell vibe and together with the Bahama Mama’s and softshell crabs proved to be a perfect end to the summer.
Whilst in the Outer Banks we decided it would be a good idea to finally make it to the Wright Bros. Memorial which was something we have NEVER done in the whole 30 years I have been going to the beach. It really was cool. In fact, I thoroughly enjoyed it and ended up with some pretty cool “point and click shots” of the event which you can view here.
I am pleased to say that I am contributing a post or two (or more) to a new blog that you can find at DeepGreenConversations. Involving two of my old blogosphere friends, Josh Brown and Ariah Fine, the blog hopes to be an interactive site full of content and resources that help you integrate your faith into a deep green lifestyle . . . rooted in practice and fueled by conversation. Please support other eco-evangelists and by all means, speak up!
For those of you who may also have an interest in green subjects but aren’t sure of writing, contact me and we can craft something together. I love being able to empower the voice of others and I am all for getting the ideas out there.
