Here at Possum Manor West there is virtually no internet access available except dial up.  There is satellite , but that is really, really expensive. The dial up is not as slow as dial up use to be, but it sure is not fast.  It is best very early in the morning…..which is now.
I am […]

I woke today only to see Brando (who we now sometimes call Lennie, in reference to Of Mice and Men) guarding a dark object in the living room. It was a mole. UGH..and a dead mole no less. I guess the cats go out and hunt and he is the keeper of the carnage. […]

Our friend Donna is here with her little Miniature Doberman, Jack. He is a cutie and holds his own with the big dogs. He likes to sit up high, […]

We are in Nags Head, NC….the Outer Banks. It is a bit of a change from Ocracoke, as it is so commercial. It is very pretty, and I am glad I am here, but it is very different. Reminds me of the Jersey Shore. This is the view from our hotel balcony. We are going […]

This is a wonderful place. It so much reminds me of the beaches my family would go to when I was a kid. The beach here is beyond words. There were never more than a handful of people on this beach within a mile’s range. We got out there about ten in the morning […]

The heat has followed us here! We are back at the room, just to cool off for a while before we head out again. Good time for a quick blog.
Later addition: We went out to the beach after a wonderful dinner, and we used the timer on the camera. It was windy, but […]

THIS PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait until I take pictures of the beach today. I have never seen a more beautiful beach. A lot of this island reminds me of Glen Arbor and Leland, Michigan. Laid back resort area, cute houses, lots of people walking in the streets and almost getting hit.
We […]
