Are we there yet? Duck Day #1

 Julep is what you would call a back seat driver.

This girl doesn't want to miss anything along the 

road to our vacation destination.

 Heading south to the Outer Banks of North Carolina and

a little town called Duck.  This will be our home away from home

for the next week ... rain or shine!

 The CB Bridge/Tunnel takes us right into Norfolk, VA as well

as the Virginia Beach area.  From this point it's a pretty

 easy drive to our final destination.

... LIFE IS GOOD ...

Our little semi-beach front rental for the week 

 We are one house back from the ocean and the beach.

But since this house is on a dead end street we could toss a 

stone at how close we are to the little board walk to the beach.

 All granite counter tops in the kitchen and pretty much every utensil

you would need to cook anything.  Cookbooks available if

you need them [some of which we added to house collection].

 Looking for the westies?  Well, you will find them here just

waiting for that bunny rabbit or single red tailed fox to

come out and run across the lawn.

 They love it here and I would venture to say they are both

 obsessed with watching and waiting.

 This house has many decks!

 I'm glad we got to enjoy at least one cup of morning coffee

on the top deck because our weather forecast doesn't look

great for the rest of the week.  That's OK - we have lots to 

keep us busy and a fireplace to light for coziness.  We also

picked up a nice bottle of wine and a few steaks for dinner.

 My busy work ... 4 quilts that need binding hand sewn on.

I'm happy to report this quilt is now done.  It belongs to my

quilting guild so I'll take that back to them in November.

... Wishing the rain away ...
