Even a Hurricane can't keep me from grilling

Hamburgers and beer!  Maybe the last cooked meal we have for a few days!

Hurricane Irene- Aug 26-27, 2011

We were braced for a Cat 2 Hurricane but she lost strength and came ashore as a Cat 1 thank goodness!   Still caused lots of damage from winds and water.  We faired pretty well.  Not much damage to our structures like when Hurricane Ophelia came through in 2005.  Our fish house didn't take a trip up the creek-that lesson was learned :) .  Terry and Jerry spent a good part of Friday securing things and getting th e"little boat" off the lift. Here are a few pics Terry has been able to send.  First 2 pics were Friday, the others were Sat morning after a night of high winds and rain.

Wow it's been a long time since I have posted. Here are a few pics from our January 15th 2011 Christmas celebration... enjoyed spending time with the family that could make it. Great to spend some time with Christopher and Rachel before their move to Sweden!

Catch of the day--in the castnet

Labor Day Week 09

Here's the surprise catch of the week....it was definitely a catch and release!

This is something we'll probably never have again--a NC grown pineapple- 3 years in the making

Here's Jenny demonstrating her csat netting skills.

The flounder of Dad's dream. ( He had just told me he dreamed he caught a flounder in his cast net.)

It's a keeper- Right at 17 inches. Fried him up Tuesday night.
