Outer Banks


These are pics of a trip we took down to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. The massive sand bar is famous for the pirate Black Beard, or Edvard Teach who terrorised the area. He doesn't anymore though, just in case you were worried.


Christi and I on a ferry taking us to Ocracoke, an island only accessable by boat, there was a nice pub there.


Christi and Kimberly showing their excitement at being engaged (not to each other). Kimberly and Brandon had just got engaged a day before we got there. He proposed on the beach at sunset, how romantic.

This is the site where the Wright brothers first started to fly their planes. The far hill has a monument to their achivements.

This is one of the many lighthouses in the Outer Banks. They're all painted in different ways so that sailors could tell where they were, I just thought they looked cool.


This is a '67 Mustang that Christi and i found on our way home, friggin awesome!!!!

This is a one of the many murals in Phily

I thought it was where they put the canon through, then when the navy looked through the hole to find him, out would pop a large hot ball of metal.

yeah, pirates are renowned for being quite nosey, so the tactic worked more often than not.
