crisp and clean

Maybe today I will get my thrice-rinsed laundry off the line. My neighbors will probably appreciate the effort. When my washing machine broke a few weeks ago, my father ambled over from his house next door and twisted the knobs around. No dice. So I called Jake Johnson, and within five minutes he was at my door, tool kit in hand. Five minutes later I had a working machine! And the price was right--Jake told me to buy him a beer sometime. Ah, Ocracoke . . .

Ah, Jenny.

Jake is a pushover for a female in distress, especially a good-looking female like yourself.

Now, if he had to fix Al's washing machine, that would be a different story.

Only on Ocracoke.

You know, that never occurred to me.

thanks for the picture of Jake rushing to Al in distress.

About Me

My Photo
Name: Blue Heron Vacations
Location: Ocracoke, NC, United States

I grew up on Ocracoke (Class of 1990!) and graduated from Davidson College. Jennifer, who many of you know as the owner of Blue Heron Realty, has been a great and true friend for as long as I can remember. I work as a waitress at the Cafe Atlantic, serve on the board of our community radio station (check out WOVV.org) and write an occasional column for the Island Breeze. Every time I travel I fall in love with a new place, but nothing yet trumps living near my (at times eccentric) family, swimming in the Atlantic on our world class beach, and being part of the strong, warm and inspiring community which is Ocracoke.
