Labor Day has been a national holiday for over 100 years, evolving from a purely labor union celebration in honor of the working class to the last chance for a summer vacation. We're headed to the beautiful North Carolina Outer Banks, and hopefully a great week of relaxation at a great resort. A great beach vacation for us is being able to hear the waves at night and easy access to the beach for sitting and reading and walking the beach during the day.
So what is there to do at the Outer Banks? The Outer Banks cover 130 miles from Duck to Hatteras Village. Kids and adults love the wild ponies and there are birds galore.There is a great mix of quiet solitude as you walk along nature trails, explore Jockey's Ridge or play a little golf. There are a plethora of activities that involve exploring the nature and history of this great state where the Wright Brothers discovered a great place to test a funny looking machine that changed our world forever. Well, I'm packing to "take off" this weekend.
Travel Well!
