Ocean Isle, NC April 2009

Here is Christine piloting BlueSkies under the Ocean Isle, NC causeway.  This is a historic moment for us, since we have been at Ocean Isle every year for the past 19 years for our annual volleyball tournament.   Probably one of the most unusual themes in one's lifetime is to have a group a friends that meet at the same vacation spot every year for almost 20 years.  The event is a volleyball tournament -- at least we think it as a volleyball tournament.  It actually turns into a Margarita festival !   The top picture shows the water route to Sharkys --the best  watering hole on the island.

Regardless, we stay at the Ocean Isle marina.  Not a great spot since it is right on the intracoastal waterway.  But we paid homage to Ocean Isle, a special place in our hearts.
