80 Days of Summer for Bob - Day #52

Sunday.

The motto of Virginia used to be (and still may be), Virginia is for Lovers. Based upon my experience - they should change their state motto to: Virginia is not for Drivers.

Although we were up early again, it took more than an hour to get gas, coffee and relocate the interstate to continue our journey. Virginia seems to excel in the concept of poor highway sineage, gas stations without gas, and excessive road tolls.

Despite the desires of Virginia to hold us captive for the remainder of the summer, we arrived early afternoon at the Outer Banks (OBX for the uninitiated) of North Carolina.

It was a spectacular day to enjoy the beaches, FREE ferries, and lighthouses of the OBX.
