We departed the First Landing State Park at about 9AM this morning. We had a bunch of errands to run, like going to the UPS Store to ship glass to Richmond. We had a non-eventful, and really pleasant drive down to the Outer Banks. We got in to the Whalehead Club at 2PM, dropped off the Forest River, and started our set-up. We finished up by 6PM, with only a few last minute placements for tomorrow morning. Sherry served up some tasty hors d'oeuvres and we sat in the A/C trying to cool down after a very hot set up.

We walked around the park, taking time to visit with some of our Artist friends. The Whalehead Club has a beautiful campus, and adjoins the Currituck Lighthouse Museum, Nature Center and Marina. The Currituck Lighthouse is fully restored and operational. It is utilizes a Fresnel Lens (beveled glass) similar to the light I photographed during the Gosport Art Festival last May in Portsmouth, Virginia.

We finished up the walk with a nice stroll along the Oceanfront. We stopped at a small ice cream shop and got The Blue Dog a vanilla cone. After we returned to camp, Sherry make a delicious single dish of rice sausage peas and peppers. It was a wonderful way to finish up the evening.
