Good Morning Sunshine – Memory Monday 4/23/18

Good morning sunshine

What a beautiful sunrise we enjoyed this morning.  Reminds us of the song good morning Sunshine as the bright yellow ball rose over the ocean today.  Not to be confused with the song Good morning Starshine by Oliver.  Good morning sunshine  is a silly song written and performed by by Aqua which just makes you smile.

Sun Will Come Out – Memory Monday 4/16/18

Rainbow shot - sun

Greetings from a wet OBX on this Monday morning.   We had a strong line of thunderstorms roll through this morning that woke us up and cleaned off our cars so we are seeing some clouds this morning.   But just as it is sung in the musical Annie – The Sun will come out tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow…there will be sun!

Horse Breakout

We have posted many pictures here previously of the Corolla Wild Horses that roam freely north of Corolla in the Carova, Swan Beach, and N.C. State Park areas.  This week we bring you some more pictures, and we bring you a news story.   It seems there was a breakout of the horses last week and a group of them made a run for it to the lush grass yards of Corolla.

Memory Monday 3/19/18 – Sandy Memories

Greetings again from the sunny Outer Banks.  We had a remarkably warm February and evidently we are still paying the price for that as it has been much cooler than we like so far this March.    Spring is set to arrive this week so we are sure that means warmer weather will be here on a regular basis, and of course we have Easter less than two weeks away now so we all are ready for some beach time.  Speaking of beach time Sandy Zygmont recently stayed with Outer Banks Blue and shared a number of photo memories with us that we are posting today on Memory Monday.

Memory Monday 3/5/18 – Toddler rules

Greetings from a still very windy OBX.   We have experienced 4 straight days of heavy wind here on the beach, but the weather man promises today will be the last of it the wind for a while.   Thank goodness as we are getting very tired of the heavy breeze we’ve seen for the last 5 days.  We sure hope the weather man is correct because we can use some beach time.  This week’s Memory Monday photo submission reminds us of how much fun the beach can be in a post we are calling Toddler rules.

Greetings from a rainy, but unseasonably warm Outer Banks!   We are counting on the groundhog being wrong about winter lasting another few weeks as yesterday we enjoyed record high temperatures, and this week we are expecting temps to be above normal every day.   Weather is always on the top of our minds here on the Outer Banks and that is the theme of this week’s Memory Monday contest submissions.   We are calling this week’s entries Pier pics.
