The computer is fixed (for the moment). I really appreciate YouTube!!! You'll notice some subtle changes as I tried to fix a lot of mistakes I made with my fat fingers using Wendy's tablet. We left Nags Head during some pretty windy weather...gale force winds and cool temps. It was our first ferry with both trailer and truck. It was an hour and a half ride. We thought it nice we were at the front of the line as the view was great, but didn't reckon on all the salt spray from the gale force winds. The other bad reason for being at the front of the line I'll explain a little later. It was his first trip out and very evident he was not a happy camper :) This ride was 1 1/2 hours long. A straight line to our destination would have taken about 15 minutes but many sandbars and obstacles had to be negotiated. After landing at Okracoke, I found the second reason to avoid being first in line! We were first off and leading the pack down the only road to town, some several miles away. I wished this fellow had been down the road sooner, he would have scraped a pretty good sized sand dune out of my way before I hit it at 50 mph! I think we were slightly airborne for a moment. No damage...yay. And no flipped shackles...yay! We've moved to 4 different spots in 6 days. And decided to extend for 2 more days and 1 more move. A lot of people travel through and we had to piece-meal through reservations to find unreserved spots. It has been well worth it! This lies 150 yards away from us, on the other side of a large sand dune. Very beautiful :) Nice sounds to sleep with every night!
