Your Bio

We have the choice to live as we want, so we chose an outdoor life. It is a different life than many of the people around us. We chose more outdoors, less TV. More fresh air, more sunshine, more water, more mud. We have both taken many photos over the years. Some are from before we knew each other and many are from our life together. If you find a picture you enjoy please give it the green thumbs up.

Avon at the beach 8-8-09 : After playing at the lighthouse's beaches all week we spent our last full day closer to home and found a massive shore break. We made a sand fortress and decorated it. There were at least a dozen dolphins fishing off the farther out sand bar. While we could see them and the shoals of fish they were "herding" the camera could not easily "see" them. Still, we were glad to share the water with them.

We are staying in the same house this year we stayed in last year for our honeymoon. James' photos are noted, mine are not.

Kayaking Salvo Day Use Area 7-2-09 : We paddled this area last year and so wanted to return for a longer trip. This time we were prepared for the large waves and wind. We put in at about 8:30 am and paddled until 11 am or so. We had found the many protected channels last year only after fighting the wind until I couldn't paddle on. This time we used the channels to rest and so made it much farther. We managed to make it to the island James had wanted to paddle to last time. Check out James' videos to get a real idea of just how much wave action we paddled through.

Difficult Run & Great Falls Circuit Hike 2-28-09 : James and I read about this hike on line. So, armed with a vague trail map and an intrepid attitude we headed out Saturday morning. We took a side trip down Difficult Run, following it south for a mile and a quarter before we turned back. We were the victims of the vague trail map and poor trail marking. It was a nice side trip though. Then we found and followed our trail along the north part of Difficult Run turning on the Matildaville Trail and then stopping at Great Falls proper before returning back on the Swamp Trail. Once again the trail map served to confuse us and we were forced to bolt across Georgetown Pike and climb a guard rail to finish our hike. A fine adventure netting us 8.6 miles of hiking. Our time 4 hours and 14 minutes total.

August 8th, 2007, Hatteras : Wednesday--James and I spent the morning/early afternoon at the urgent care place, remember that kayak attack from yesterday? Later, after he settled in to rest, the boy and I went out to the beach. The surf was really up. He played at the waters edge but didn't swim. A good thing considering he got dragged in just by standing calf-deep in the surf after it had broken on the beach.

August 9th, 2007, Hatteras : Thursday--my guy was recovered and we went to Salvo Day Use Area with our 'yaks. We left the boy behind as he's not yet a strong paddler. It was a good thing too, 'cause the surf was UP, and it was a bit more than I could handle. We had two foot breakers rolling over the bows of our boats. I mean, some rough action, no kidding. We couldn't get any shots of the swells without risking rolling our boats. We headed for the shelter of the canals that line the area south of the Day Use Area, and enjoyed the easy paddling between each venture into Pamlico Sound.

Aug 10th, 2007, Beach : Later, we took the boy out to the beach and spent the afternoon there. We built a sand castle and lost it twice to the incoming tide. We left the beach just in time to avoid an incoming storm off the ocean. I caught some pics of it looming over the houses at the beach front. A good last day at the beach!

I noted the tree had been dropped by beavers. I brought James back today and we followed the stream until we located the dam. They've made quite the construct. The number of trees they've downed is impressive. Their reservoir is at least 200 yards long. If the park service does nothing it will back up further. Much of the stream valley will go under.

The vet and nurse who bottle fed him called him Boogie or little bastard. We first called him Jollnir, then Jean-Luc, and finally the itty-bitty kitty which became Busy Bee. The nurse told us at 4 weeks of age, "either he'll eat cat food or die." Thus he came home with us, and was raised by wild cat children, Loki-Bob and Captain Kirk.

Chopping down the Tulip Poplar 3-29-09 : Pretty self explanatory. Sadly, the tree had to go as it was too close to the new structure we are building, it was leaning towards the house, and had a black rotten split in its base. The arborist said it was only going to make it another year or two if left alone.

A new scarf for James : I made up this pattern. I wanted to play with the perl stitch but didn't like the pattern my friend gave me. It is in sets of four stitches, so it starts and ends with four standard stitches. There are four rows of standard and three rows of perl stitch. I was pretty happy with the finished piece.

New front door April 22, 2009 : Our old front door and side lights were rotting out. Now that the Pella guys have replaced the door and side lights the next step will be painting the "Fipon" lintel. Rain rain go away come again some other day!
