Big Rig Service then to the Outer Banks

---

We spent 2 days at Freightliner in Gaffney, SC, to have the Winnebago's oil changed and a 4-wheel alignment. $500 later we were good to go and headed to the East Coast. We "dry camped" in a church (founded 1812) parking lot, with their permission at Swan Quarter, NC. After I took a sea sick pill we put the rig on the Ocracoke Ferry at 6:30 a.m. and headed to the Outer Banks. Tom was loving the ferry ride.

Cape Hatteras was quite a history lesson. The litehouse was moved in 2003 due to hurricanes eroding her previous location. She is safe for another 100 years.
Ocracoke beach was rated #1 in country for 2006. Visited the Wright Brothers Museum and for Father's Day went kyaking. Life is good.

Hey, Sonja Shalosky and family were just at Cape Hatteras and Tim's sister and bro got carried out by a rip tide. They called the rescue squad and all was well, but a heart stopping experience. You be careful out there.
