Fall Colors in NC
Sunday, 10/17 - At the beach from 8-10. Came home and baked an apple pie. Doubleheader flag football game. John, Jess, Dave here for Family Dinner.
Monday & Tuesday, 10/18-19 - Went to Greensboro to see Bonnie! Had a great visit and stopped at Trader Joe's in Raleigh on the way home. Dinner at Front Street Brewery with Cape Fear Camera Club when I got home.... stories to tell about that when I see you!
Wednesday, 10/20 - Black River Nature Cruise from 9:30 to 1:30 with narration by Andy Wood from the Audubon Society. Learned that NC does have "fall" and the leaves do change! Pizza dinner with John & Dave
Thursday, 10/21 - Tide was too high for a good walk but I did get some time at Airlie Gardens. Dinner at Baja Grill with two of the "Senior Ladies".
Friday, 10/22 - On the beach for sunrise. Went to Airlie Gardens and saw Northern Flicker, Pied-Billed Grebes, and American Black Ducks along with the usual Wood Ducks and Red-Bellied Woodpeckers. Volunteered to be part of the Airlie "Dirty Dozen" on Thursday mornings (means I show up with my garden gloves and plant & weed) and was asked if I would help with school trips (need help with 8th grade groups the most... that I can do!). Enjoyed the Fourth Friday Gallery Nights Walk in downtown Wilmington from 6 to 9 and then dinner with the Wilmington Dining Adventurists Group.
Saturday, 10/23 - Went downtown this morning for the Wilmington Downtown Lifestyle Tour which consisted of visiting 15 "lofts and living spaces" on a walking tour. Joan would have loved this! Tonight I am headed for the beach to watch the moonrise!
The week was full of much needed phone calls from friends. I love my new home and definitely keep busy but still miss you all!
