Sunrise Saturday – OBX

Since most of my posts this week have been about our trip to the Outer Banks last weekend, you probably aren’t surprised to learn that today’s Sunrise Saturday post features an OBX sunrise.

Actually, these were taken quite awhile after sun-up. But I thought the clouds made for a pretty sky.

We were on our way to meet our friends for breakfast. If you’re familiar with the Outer Banks, you know that there’s a bypass and there’s a beach road. We were driving on the bypass, but decided to take a quick detour down to the ocean.

Motor Man pulled over, and I trekked across the sand to get pictures. And yes, I got sand in my shoes.

Hmm. How long til summer?

Although I was just a child when this wonderful Drifters tune was getting airplay, once I discovered it, it became one of my all-time favorite songs:

They just don’t write ’em like that any more.
