We are READY!

The day is fast approaching when we set "sail" for our summer adventure. We are planning on leaving Matthews Point Marina, our marina in North Carolina for the past 12 months, on Saturday morning June 25. We are sad to say Good Bye to so many of our new friends at MPM, but we are really ready and we will be back in a few years.
We'll be heading generally North along the Intracoastal Waterway.
Cheers and Great Summer to all. We'll try to keep this updated as much as we are able to, so we keep our location updated.

Ocracoke, Outer Banks, June 2011

June 5, 2011

We just spend 6 days in Ocracoke, on the Southern end of the Outer Banks. People get there by commercial ferries or private boats. It is a quaint, easy-going little village, full of creative artists of all kinds: musicians, painters, jewelry makers, and many more. The harbor is small and well protected. We were there during the annual Ocrafolk Music Festival, which attracts another varied group of folk musicians from all over the East/South East. Quite a wonderful experience being anchored amidst another 25 boats, and hopping from one outdoor stage to another to enjoy the sounds of acoustic string instruments. Quality was high and they all put quite a show. Much better live than on CD in my opinion. We dinghied to land and unfolded our new bikes to ride around. Loved it all!
