Fun in the North Carolina Sun!

 

The sweet corn and peaches that we picked 

up at a local roadside market were delicious!

Here is one of our Harvest Host locations 

in Pikeville, North Carolina. Nice flat, peaceful place. 

You can't beat the view of looking over the vineyard. 

Harvest Host is where you can stay at wineries, farms, 

museums, breweries and more for a yearly membership.

You also purchase something from the business. 

Definitely beats campgrounds in our book.

The Mother Vine

The oldest grapevine in North America!

When you click on the link it will show you an aerial

view which is pretty impressive. 

It is located on Roanoke Island in Manteo.

Can you imagine the pressure, as the owner of the 

property, to not kill the vine?

We drove a few miles down the Cape Hatteras National 

Seashore and saw Bodie Island Lighthouse.

Not very far away is the 

Wright Brothers National Memorial in Kitty Hawk, NC.

This is the view from the visitor center where 

Wilbur and Orville Wright took their

world changing flights. 

See the monument in the distance?

I nice little walk up Kill Devil Hill with

 the visitor center on the right side. 

Wright Brothers Monument

Did you know they used a launching rail 

and landed in the soft sand?

We spent several relaxing hours walking 

and collecting shells on Kitty Hawk Beach.
Life is good!
