Fishing before flying: S.Core Banks

---

Before flying over to Krakow, we spend a couple of weeks at home in North Carolina, visiting friends and family, and encouraging them to make plans for Poland! Keith goes on the annual fishing trip to Core Banks. This is a man thing. The men of the family stay in shacks and drive their trucks up and down the beach looking for fish. This goes on for 3 days until they pack up and ferry back over. This is a very well planned and executed excursion, very empowering. I and the other females of the family don't know all the particulars, but upon their return they are unshaven, tired and keep repeating the phrase "Hey Hank, what goes on at the island, stays there."
While they were away we girls did get together and play a little too. Although none of us were sworn to secretcy. (or were we?)
