     Tuna Gorda, Outer Banks, NC

     Tuna Gorda! Another weekend at the Big Fish. This time I took my girl Rachel and her roommate Monica out for a trip. We met up with some of the George Mason crew, Michelle and Kelly and a few from other colleges in Virginia.

     We hit the sights around the area. Rachel and I walked up to the top of the lighthouse and enjoyed the cold air blowing around the top. We got a few pictures of the area and then walked along the beach back to the house. Later that evening was some time well spent in the hot tub. I still have yet to get one. ARGH!

     This trip also started Kelly on her path towards "surfdom". She got a few lessons on the waves with her friends and we got to watch. It was a little cold out there, but she managed to enjoy herself a little. There was also this thing with Seanan running... oh nevermind. It never happened.

     It still amazes me that no matter how many times I go to the beach, I still don't mind going. When you think about it, there's really not THAT much to do. There's sand and there's sun. But it's the people you go with that really make you enjoy the trip. I mean, sometimes it's cool to have some solitude on the beach, but when you're out there with friends and having a good time, it just makes the trip memorable.
