On Topsail Island we were fortunate to spend time with our good friend Jim at his beach house. We had visited him and his wife back in 2017 and it was wonderful to catch up with him again in such as relaxing atmosphere. We spent two days at the beach where Miss M worked on her tan, Big D rented a surf board, and Paul and I did our best to not get sunburned.

D was determined to get up on the board and tried to surf for most of the day until the sun set.

On Monday we made our way to the third stop on our trip: the Outer Banks. It took about four hours to drive from Topsail Island and we passed fields of tobacco plants, collards and corn.

After grabbing dinner at a local brewery, we finally made our way to the northern most point in the outer banks: Corolla.
