Flashback Friday (part 11) - OBX

March 6, 2009

Thaxton Flashback Friday imageIn the summer of 2006, we were invited to stay for free at a beach house in the Outer Banks (OBX) with my brother, sister-in-law and The Neighbors in North Carolina.

It was four wheel drive beach access to reach the house. I drove the Land Rover (I recently sold) and proceeded to get it stuck twice but nice people snickered pulled me out easy enough.

The weather was rainy and windy the first day but the sun came up on the second day and we took the circus to the beach. Here is Cary, Carson, myself, (Troy not pictured), Tim and Sydney sitting in the sand with my brother off to the side. I was about four months pregnant with Troy at the time.

I couldn't even get a Land Rover down the beach and they moved a whole house, completely decorated and furnished down the same stretch of beach. Amazing. Corova beach house in OBXHere are more pictures from that trip to Corova, NC on kodakgallery.com.

And although that's quite a drive from where I am, I do love our beaches here in the Carolina's. Nothing could be finer...
