Bear on the Beach

I attempted a video from vacation. But it was vacation....so I honestly didn't try that hard.

I think with my Ogunquit videos, there was a little more continuity to them. This one is random shots kind of strung together.

Beach. Food. Hikes. Dogs. Weird Signs. Weather.

It has it all.

North Carolina has its issues of course - them with all their hate. The plan was to give them no money and not go. But honestly, we looked in P-Town, Ogunquit, Rehoboth and even the Hamptons. With our limited window of time, we had very very few choices.......and even those had the shittiest of accommodations. So yes, we went.

When we stayed there the first time it was because we thought it was gay-owned or friendly. It turns out those were just colourful beach flags at the pool, not Pride ones.  This year, they did have a Pride flag. But to be fair, they also had a Jolly Roger flag too.  Somewhere there is a 'butt pirate' joke just waiting to be had.

With the weather portion, you see the makings of a decent storm. What you don't see was the tornado or water spout that was about 1.5 miles away. I was so taken by it - and possibly tipsy, as it was happy hour at the inn - that I didn't grab my phone. By the time I did, it had gone away only to be replaced by lots of lightening.

I will apologize first off. The wind makes the volume all screwy. You really have to want to hear me in some parts.

It's nonsense of course - the video, that is - but that's what I'm about.

Did you get Air O Smith's autographs?
I thought their touring van would be a little bugger but hey maybe they are scaling back a bit these days.

Nags Head? For a moment I thought you were in a pub in Covent Garden.
