OBX 2007
We're here again and another hurricane is coming. No, it's really only a tropical storm. "Only" 60 mph winds. Actually nobody here is even talking about it, yet it's front page on CNN.com.
There was a T-shirt here during Ophelia in 06 with an anchorman saying "wind pressure, blah, blah, blah, winds gusting, blah blah, blah." It really gives you perspective on how the media hypes the news for profit.
Anyway it should be outta here! on Monday and after the storm great weather will be back! It was our first trip in the GMC and let me tell you, what a breeze it was. Even though it took 8 hours, it was painless. It was actually enjoyable. Of course two dvd players didn't hurt.
Now for the philosophical part. One look at the beach and I wonder why I'm in that rat race back home. Life is good here. I hear it's incredibly boring in the off season. Boring sounds nice. Time for contemplation and peace. Bike riding. Walking or running on the beach. Doing something to make a living that isn't so stressful. The people are nice here, not overly nice, but nice.
