The Hurricane


Kind of makes ya want to Salute!

Old Ships

These are some of the old fishing boats along the inter coastal waterway near Holden Beach, NC. I would love to spend a day on one of these boats just to see what it was like.

Holden Beach Pier


It was a nice night for a stroll along Holden Beach. My wife, daughter and I walked from our house to the ice cream shoppe next to the pier. We love taking night walks, especially when the sea turtle eggs are hatching. This year we didn't see any baby turtles but the walk was just as fine and full of special memories.
We have just returned from our vacation to the beach. This year our niece, her husband and our great niece came along. This is the first time she has ever fed the Sea Gulls. At one point she had about 30 gulls on the ground and in the air, all squawking at her to throw me more food. Her smile tells the rest of the story.
