OBX - Nov.19-23

This was guys' weekend at the OBX. Only two guys - Gary & me - but we managed to make a weekend of it. Our first look at the beach after a big nor'easter that had hit the week before was pretty shocking. The town of Duck was out clearing everything from hurricane fence to full trees to part of an entire dock that washed ashore from parts unknown. You can see in this photo of Gary both good news and bad. The good news is that we now have two or three steps buried under new beach. The bad, however, is that the snow fence that may have helped build up that beach is gone. Only the support posts remain behind Gary.

Despite the carnage on the beach, we managed to get in a good guys' trip, filled with food, drink, football, bars, and cigars!

We were in Duck that same weekend! The kids loved watching the cleanup crew and we even watched a Navy radar float wash up on shore.
