[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I agree..I think others on the LUG would like the photo opportunities there...Pamlico River, Lake Mattasmuskeet, Lake Phelps, Indian Island, the Intra Coastal Waterway, Hobucken, Old Town Bath, and maybe even the Swan Quarter to Ocracoke Ferry. We do a couple of days in the Pamlico Beach vicinigy and a couple along the Outer Banks..especially Ocracoke Island. I have a relative with a very nice hotel on Ocracoke...www.edwardsofocracoke.com...would be a nice place to go with the LUG. Fall 2006 with lots of advance time and planning? We could even rent a boat or two and head over to Portsmouth Island. Ever been there? When did BD come down?
