Strange Things




Tuesday evening, March 20th, 8:11 p.m. We experienced an earthquake. This was confimed by Tim Lancsek in Kitty Hawk and Tim Yewcic in Salvo. There was a rumbling of the earth. Then it stopped. Then the house was shaking. Then it stopped. And started again.


The official word is that it was a sonic boom from military jets, but if they aren't allowed to fly with sonic booms in populated areas, why does this continue to happen?


The news has been inundated lately with reports that the Outer Banks is one of the most dangerous places to live, that we will be flooded out with global warming, etc. There is a fault line off the coast. Why wouldn't it be possible/probable that we have been having earthquake tremors?

Introducing George


We've added another one to our circus troop. After only female cats and dog, it is very strange to watch how this male pup exhibits truly male behavior. He may be pint sized at the moment, but he is all male dog.
This addition also officially makes Mike and I "dog people".

Shish-Kabob





Mike took this picture. Yes, she is beautiful, but she has ruined our brand new chair!

Heron's Restaurant Burns!!!



We never figured out whether this was an intentional burning of the restaurant in Duck or not.

Shelby and The Gator


If you spend anytime at my Dad's, Shelby gives free gator rides to anyone who might have to exert themselves by walking. Isn't she sweet?

House Pictures



Here is the living room - Mike was trying out his new camera, so please disregard the mess!
