I made it back home yesterday afternoon from my NC trip. I was just too tired to post anything yesterday. I was up at 3:50 A.M. eastern time while some of you were just going to bed. I had no flight delays and arrived at LAX early!

I enjoyed spending time with my family. I drove out to Raleigh to meet with Terri's youngest brother, Kevin, who is an officer in the Marines. I also flew up to Maryland to visit one of her other brothers, Brian, and his family who is an officer in the Navy. He also has a restaurant in Pocomoke City, MD. Now if you want some great seafood and steaks you must stop by The Upper Deck on 1245 Ocean Highway. He has a really nice place there.

I helped my Dad in the garden and ate some fresh tomatoes, sweet white corn, okra, blackberries, green beans and yellow crook neck squash. I gained 10 pounds while there. Now it’s time to lose it. I think I shot over 400 rounds of ammunition though some of Dad’s rifles. Mom baked several blackberry cobblers. I gained 5 pounds from that alone.

I went fishing twice with my uncle and dad. I went down to Baden Lake to see my brother’s property. He has offered me a good deal on that and I’m thinking about buying it. I’m seriously considering living in NC for 6 months during the fall/winter season and here in CA the other 6 months. Eventually I’ll move to NC permanently.

Now that I’m back, I have a ton of things to do. Between now and October, I’ve so much to accomplish before I go back to NC.

Here are few of my pictures for you to enjoy.
