Spent the last week at the beach.

Awesome weather: a perfect string of warm clear days (it hasn't rained in most of NC in over a month).

Friends who live there took us on their boat to Cape Lookout. Easily one of the most beautiful places I've ever been - the five of us we were one of two groups of people there, on this little inaccessible spit of perfect brown-sugar sand sticking out into the ocean where endless schools of small fish raced by, under clear skies, with the big lighthouse just across the little bay. No pix, because no camera could do it justice.

So, here's a dark waning sunset.
