riddle me this

Fall colors, ancient mountains, covered bridges, vineyards & barbecue restaurants: what do these things have in common?

No where to be found on Ocracoke Island! (The Uwharrie National Forest around Lexington, NC is lovely, as I just recently learned.)

Also, not to be traded for the comforts of home, family, friends and island. Happy Thanksgiving. Now I will fitfully meditate on the true essence of gratitude.

Not to mention the ZOO in Asheboro, just around the corner.

Yes! I really want to spend more time there: visit the zoo and browse in all the pottery shops in Seagrove. My only trip to the NC zoo was in 3rd or 4th grade. Howard Bennink took us. I came home with a stuffed koala from the gift shop which I kept for many years.

I've always liked the zoo. But the NC zoo is something special. It's like from the movie Madagascar. Thanks for taking the time and sharing with us these posts about your adventures. They are great inspiration for online dissertation introduction service. Please keep it good posting!

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.
