Leaving The Beach





Wednesday, January 26, 2011

The couple of days at N. Topsail Beach was nice and relaxing. Thanks to one of the blog followers, John Woods, for allowing us to use his place. The weather was less than ideal, but that's what you get on the East Coast during the winter months. We visited my cousin, Nancy Dudley in St. James Plantation, and my brother Robert, in Carolina Beach. Robert drove us out on the beach in his Jeep, and that was fun. Because of the weather I haven't walked for a couple of days (already getting soft!), but hope to be able to when I get to Gastonia. We'll pack up this morning and head west to Gastonia for a couple of days, then on to VA on Friday.

I will be doing an "in studio" interview on the Keith Larson Show on Friday morning, January 28, at 11am. Keith is on WBT 1110 in Charlotte, NC. I hope you will be able to listen in, if not, we'll try to put a link on the blog. The pictures are: The walkingman in front of John Woods' house in N. Topsail Beach; Mayor Art Schools of Emerald Isle presenting the key to the city. (do I look pleased or not?)

  4. Thanks the mention in your blog and the posting of the picture of our North Topsail beach home. We love it there and I thought it would give you two true days of down-time after your walk and celebration. Sorry I couldn't order up some better weather for you. I am going to mention you in our vrbo.com listing as a celebrity who has stayed at our home!

    Best regards,

    John
