Friday afternoon, crossing the Intracoastal Waterway - looking quite calm
despite the heavy gusting winds. I always love crossing the bridge
knowing the island awaits, ever changing from the weather along this coast.
The ocean almost looked like a moving landscape of snow and ice with the
churning waves glittering in the sunlight.
We chose the scenic drive along Bogue Banks Island - part of the
Crystal Coast - through the beach communities of Emerald Isle, Salter Path,
Pine Knoll Shores and Atlantic Beach . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . stopping to take a few photos of the churning Atlantic along the way.
The remains of one of the piers shortened during the most recent damaging
storm along the North Carolina coast - powerful Hurricane Florence in
September 2018.
It was a cold 'hang on to everything - blow away the cobwebs' day with quite
ferocious winds, but sunny and enjoyable to be out in the fresh air.
Hope your weekend is enjoyable.
