We camped on the Outer Banks a couple of times, beautiful place. And there's the Wright Brothers location,too. Pro tip: you need special sand stakes for your tent! We were glad we'd been forewarned when we saw other people's tents bowling merrily away down the miles of beach.
Oh my, I've had to tie a tent down to the picnic table (concrete) when I was camping at Galveston beach. There was a hurricane that came through nearby, but the worst was the wind that made everything snap all night, so we ended up sleeping in the car.
Grateful for the posting of Baba Yaga by a favorite artistt, Rima Staines, whom I had forgotten about! Do go to her instagram page, her art is magnificent and speaks to a deeper well of life! One remembered in our spirits and bones , obscured by present everyday living and men telling us to smile...
Thanks - I added Rima Staines name to give her credit for that wonderful painting of Baba Yaga. I'm also laughing out loud at the comment about men telling us to smile. My mother used to do the same for picture taking time, but then would stick out her tongue whenever the camera pointed at her. She was feisty. Maybe a bit of Baba Yaga there!
Hello Barb,
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of the river and the Outer Bank image. Every day is Earth day! Take care, enjoy your day!
The Outer Banks image is from a FB site, and I love it. Not quite enough to drive all day to get to see it (maybe). Perhaps when summer comes.
DeleteThe Outer Banks. 👌
ReplyDeleteThere's actually a FB page of Outer Banks photos every day or so.
Delete...Baba Yaga needs to try smiling.
ReplyDeleteShe's not exactly that kind of goddess. More like fairy tale stuff. Folk tales.
