It's been awhile.....Hello!
Hello again everyone! I've been watching my rose garden closely, but not too many blooms on the vines to report - therefore - very little picture taking! Don't fret - there are enough to make a few bouquets (scant) for the house on a rotating basis - but just not flushes like the spring and June brought.
I thought I would report on our weekend day trip to Nags Head and Kitty Hawk, NC beaches and our great dinner at Ocean Boulevard restaurant in Kitty Hawk - overlooking the ocean peaking through the cottages beachfront.
Nags Head - Whalebone Junction - where the road to the beach forks- is only 2 hours from our house in Greenville, NC. Living in Eastern NC does have a few perks! Getting to Asheville is a little more driving time! Day trips are a great way to get away, enjoy a walk on the beach and then have a great meal of local seafood at the many restaurants on the causeway or the beach roads.
Mike had a whole fish with shrimp, sautéed vegetables and some amazing sauce, pickled ginger on top |

Ocean Boulevard has been there for many years but is NOT your typical beach style fish house restaurant - it's gourmet! Interesting homemade dishes with fish from local catches - and homemade desserts like the one we had (and I forgot to take a picture of!). It was amazing! Ice Cream with triangles of a cookie style shortcake with a tangy sweet lemon buttercream filling between the piled up triangles- wow!
