Everytime I'm near the ocean, I wonder why I don't live closer to it, like within steps rather than miles and miles. What could be better? The woods? Nope. Mountains? Not always. We just spent a couple weeks back east, with half of that time on Cape Hatteras, N.C. It's not completely desolate by any stretch, but it's certainly nice to visit a spot on the Atlantic seaboard that still isn't completely developed. Some day a monster hurricane may very well cut off the thin stretch of sand for good. So enjoy more shots from the Outer Banks right here and now.
