Winter Beach Time

 Being at home for a few days, we take advantage of the sunshine and ride out to check on the beach.

You can see how crowded out there it is at this time of the year!  We were the only ones there as far as we could see.

One advantage of going when no one else is there is that you have a much better chance of finding good shells. After all, the first one there is the one who gets them.

People ask us, “What’s it like to live on Ocracoke in the winter?”  Every time of the year is different and wonderful.  We love these quiet times, but, we will soon be ready for the island to start waking up for the spring and summer seasons.
