Forever Lost

We are down in North Carolina  - home of the HB2 hatred - but for sun and fun. Mostly sun.

It is now Wednesday, and I haven't logged onto my laptop since Saturday......not for fun.....not for work. It's been nice disconnecting.

But I realized last night I had no blog post for today. I had to get cracking.

Yesterday we were at Roanoke Island, home of the Lost Colony. While at the visitor's center (mostly because it was air conditioned !!!) there was a fimstrip - ok, they don't actually have those anymore) on what may or may not have happened to the habitants of Roanoke Island and why they disappeared somewhere between 1587-1590.

Better yet, they had an interactive section where visitors could jot down their thoughts. I was going to be a smart ass and write down "UFO".  Then I saw the other ones.....and many were much better than my own.


Alexis and I have much in common.  I like the commitment to detail about their hats.

Topical - as everyone (save me) loves zombie shows. 

Topical - back in 1590 - when James White (see title image) returned to find all had disappeared

This one was my favourite - or so I thought. For those unaware, J.J. Abrams created the television show LOST.

This one ended up being my fave. I literally LOL'd at the visitor's center.



Ok. I'm back to the beach this morning for a nice long walk and to even out my burn.

If the sideburns had been a full beard he would have found them.
