I had been wanting to visit the Outer Banks of NC for quite a while. When I was finally able to take a trip there, wouldn't you know it, it was pouring the entire time… for 4 days straight. So I got in my car and drove around exploring the wet, grey, saturated island. As a side note, I have a real thing for utility poles. Here are a few shots of the best utility poles a horribly stormy Outer Banks has to offer.
North Carolina
Carolina Micro-Farmer
My friend Andrew Odom currently lives in Georgia with his wife and daughter building their tiny house. They are huge advocates of deliberate living and before creating the Tiny r(E)volution - www.tinyrevolution.us - was a micro-farmer in North Carolina. While visiting with him we explored the area around his farm including an abandoned farmhouse and tobacco barn.
