We had such a wonderful trip at the beach with our friends the Hameloth family. I was ready to move to the Outer Banks by the end of the trip 🙂 We headed home early in the morning and when we were nearly off the island I saw a sign on the side of the 2 lane highway that said, “Unlawful to feed bears on the side of highway”, and my first thought was “Who does that?” Then about a mile down the road I saw a sign that said, “Watch for wild turkeys in road” and I decided that someone forgot to tell the turkeys about the bears.
First off, the Blue Ridge Parkway is a seriously stressful place to drive. Beautiful country, but I was glad when we were done with all those winding roads.
On day two of our drive home I40 was halted to a standstill because of road construction. Everyone was forced to take a detour that took over an hour, but we did pass this interesting house.
One tree decorated with shoes and the other with bottles.
We couldn’t resist a photo op with this guy at one of the truck stops. What a great trip, but we were glad to be home.
