Amazing picture of the lighthouse. I still have magnets of it on my fridge. (And I don’t usually collect magnets.) If you go to the cemeteries you’ll find most last names are one of two family names, as if there had ever been just two families on the island. And you are so close to Cape Hatteras, a bird and sea turtle preserve for many miles along the shore with truly virgin sand. A bit further north Kill Devil Hill where they give hang gliding lessons on sand dunes. When you are learning they fly your glider and they guide you like a kite, especially when it is windy. Wright Brothers first flight. A little further north is Currituck Beach lighthouse with wild horses visiting it every day. True free wild horses. For years and years since I was a teen, The Outer Banks was my summer go to place.
