Spot at Sea

Hi all!  A thunderstorm is rolling into Roanoke.  Lots of thunder but no rain so far.  I'm sure that will change in a little while.

You know how I mentioned that my man and I went to Asheville for half of our honeymoon week?  We went to the Outer Banks for the first half which was our favorite part.  We couldn't rent a cottage for less than a week so we stayed at the Hampton Inn in Corolla and it was fantastic.  Aside from the yummy free breakfasts and the nice cool room, we didn't have to clean up or cook.  Perfect, restful vacation...  The best part was the hotel is on the Atlantic Ocean so it was a quick walk to the beach and we had great views from our room.  As you can see from this photo, my man surf fished.  He's holding a Spot here but he also caught some Croakers (a.k.a. Sea Robins).  He threw all his catches back, of course.  :-)

**The thunder is really loud and the sun is out ~ bizarre**

Well, off to cook dinner.  It's chicken tacos tonight.
