Can't believe it's been a full 3 weeks since I posted a blog entry. I've been busy the entire time, but rather than write a lot, I'll post photos.

Good-bye to Corolla
We're staying on the beach in Corolla, which is the next town over from Duck, NC. It has been an amazing week. Of course, I've been wet twice fully clothed in the past two days, but who cares!! Yesterday we went kayaking. It was a glorious day, all sun and just a soothing breeze. Good thing since I went straight into the water trying to get into the kayak! But I'm more often hot than cold, so the next two hours of peaceful (and sometimes vigorous) rowing was really wonderful. We leave the beach today, so I went down to lay out and listen to the waves crash and enjoy another sunny morning. I watched carefully and thought I had the waves all worked out, but as I was lying on the sand, up came a particularly ambitious wave and I was soaked. Again, who cares! It is so beautiful. The photos here tell the story.

Outer Banks
The beach here this morning was so gorgeous. I took a 45-minute walk and, although it had rained last night and it rained throughout the day, it wasn't raining when I walked. I admit, this is what I had in mind when I wanted to spend 9 months by the ocean. Not the size of the house (8 bedrooms, 3 stories), but the location. The huge picture windows look out across the dunes to the restless waves.
Tomorrow was supposed to be clearing, but now they're calling for more rain. Rain isn't a problem when there are 15 people and 2 dogs in the house!

Now THIS is Spring!
Statue of Liberty and Battery Park City
Tulips in Herald Square
Today was an amazing 63 degrees and sunny. It was breezy, but it felt so good to get outside, I didn't mind the wind at all. I started the day with my 45 minute walk, going up Sixth Ave. from 35th St. into the bottom of Central Park. That means I walked about 3 miles in that time, round trip. Then a friend called and invited me to lunch downtown, so we talked, ate orange beef and pork fried rice, and walked by the harbor. Tonight I've ordered Maryland ham barbeque from Virgil's...they'll deliver it to my hotel room. I'm happy.
Tomorrow I'll take the train from Penn Station to DC. I look forward to the next 4 weeks.

In the City I Love
My hotel is kitty-corner to Macy's
Monday night, I decided I needed to leave the Vineyard and spend a few days in New York before heading to DC. So, right now, I'm sitting in bed watching CNN (no cable at cottage) and eating a Greek salad I got from around the corner. (Did I mention I had 4 places from which to choose just by walking down the block!)
On the writing front, my eHow articles are earning about $1 a day (which is 10x what they were making last month, due mostly to the volume of articles I've written). Textbroker is ok, but I put a lot of effort into writing the article for a minimal pay, with no residual benefits.
Wishing my friends a Happy Passover.
