We reserved a group of rooms at the Hampton Inn and Suites which is a few miles south of Corolla, NC, for the dates of October 19-23, 2016. The Hampton is a lovely, oceanfront facility with direct access to the beach: outerbanks.hamptoninn.com. Our room rate will be $89 + tax per night.
Chris and I also checked out the boardwalk of Manteo, NC; a fishery in Wanchese, NC; an art studio near the Hatteras Lighthouse; the historic village of Corolla, NC; and other sites. In the course of food-tasting at a few restaurants, we came across the historic Lifesaving Station No. 5 for lunch. Of course, the Wright Brothers Memorial, Jockey Ridge State Park (huge sand dunes), and the wild horses in their natural habitat north of Corolla all beckon.
This weekend we placed the Save-the-Dates postcards in the mail. After the approaching holidays we will mail more detailed information regarding our reunion to everyone in our class for whom we have contact information.
the postcard was very nice......Donna and I will have a year to get ourselves in better shape for the trip.....Donna has an appointment for some type of heavy breathing problem and shortness of breath that is very worrisome, so hopefully we get to a solution.....she has had two appointments but both were cancelled due to some type of problem with our insurance and we had to change doctors and start all over and I have reached the point where I think I have to do something about my knees....pain is getting unbearable, but otherwise we are great.......going on a buggy ride on Thursday and smores nite at a bed and breakfast near Lancaster......hi to everyone.......
