The Outer Banks Day 5

     Natalie and I started the day with an hour walk on the beach northward. She wanted to go south but I wanted to see if the birds and dolphins were feeding. There were no birds or dolphins. I was disappointed. I brought my camera. It figures!  It was a gorgeous, sunny morning.  After the walk, Nat and I loaded up into the van for the Dancing Turtle and my latte.
     This was a quiet day spent in prayer, meditation and reading Tear In The Desert by Fr. Ron Moses Camarda. I am not ashamed to say I cried a lot today. I felt very touched.
     We took a walk on the beach mid afternoon. It was warm enough for me to wear a swimsuit (with shorts). I even got a little sunburned. There were more college students and families out on the beach than there have been. Natalie has a crush on a cute Maltese guy. He didn’t like her advances when we first passed them on the beach but on the way back he was sooooo happy to see her. She was excited. They were really cute playing together. J
     Had dinner at Captain Rolo’s which opened up for the season yesterday. I had a yummy NC pulled pork BBQ sandwich with cole slaw. Nat liked the pulled pork. I hope I’m not spoiling her too much because people food is not going to happen for her when we go home.
     Thunderstorms are coming tonight and a big drop in temperatures. I am very tired and can barely keep my eyes open. Nat’s already asleep. It’s almost 9:00 pm. This is the first time I have had television on in the evening since we arrived. I couldn’t miss Survivor. It’s now over and so is the power on the television. Nite!
