• Our favorite destination year-round.  Has lots of links for lighthouses and local happenings.

• The latest news and information on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

• All the latest happenings in Kitty Hawk, NC plus the best Isabel pics that I have found so far.

• Ooooh, yeah.  Check out the tide charts, latest fish stories, what they're (supposed to be) catching.  The Pier Cam is a must-see.

• This food will make you want to just move in.  The menu changes every year but you temporarily forget that old favorite as soon as you taste a new creation.  The best part is some of the recipes are right on the internet!

• You will not believe your luck at having a place to stay within walking distance to such a wicked place!  The food is just evil and they have carry-out for those evenings that you just don't feel like driving (or can't).  On the Beach Road at the end of First Street.  That's right!  Just one block away!

• We enjoy going to Lancaster County, PA to SHOP!  Okay, Lisa likes to shop while George and Mitchell take in the train museums and Laser Dome.

• Here you can find out what's happening in and around our historic city of Fredericksburg, VA.  Beautiful area rich in nostalgia.

• Check out what's happening that is FUN (no politics) in Washington, DC.  It's only 50 miles north of here and could really use your tourist dollars.  Think about it now, hasn't it been too long since you've been to the Smithsonian?

• This is Mitchell's school.  We couldn't ask for a better principal, teachers or staff.  They really are great and must be some kind of saints.  How many of you have been in a room of 20 kindergarteners lately?

• Many an hour is spent in front of the boob tube watching Jesse and the Monster Garage teams.  Anything with gears or tools is worth watching to the gearheads in the house.  Who could that be?!?!?!

• Is this a cool time or what?  100 years have gone by since Orville and Wilbur Wright made that first 17 second flight.  We still use the same principles that they used to keep that first plane in the air.

• Next to our church, this is our favorite charity.  They sure can use anything that you could give.  Don't forget your local SPCA or animal shelter when you're feeling charitable.  They especially need bottles and formula.

• The name says it all.  The site is not updated very often but it does have some pics and info.   It's still a nice little town to raise a family in.

Okay, okay.  I'll stop forcing what we like on all of you.  Just make sure that you find something to be passionate about and give of yourself.  And for God's sake, eat, drink and be merry.  It's a legal pleasure and you can do it with several friends at once!
