OBX

Well, Michelle had a nice wrap up of our time in the outer banks. Here are my thoughts in bullet form.
  • It is a pain in the ass to get to the outer banks. However, it is worth it. It is a beautiful area. We were in Avon, NC. It is a very small area in OBX.
  • That was the first time I road in an elevator in a house. I did it in two houses. The wedding party rented a house that was like four levels. It was a great house and had an elevator. How awesome is that???
  • The bar next to where we were staying had the NFL ticket and $1.50 PBRS. It also happened to be right across the street from the wedding reception.
  • The bar had a game around the PBRs. The bottle cap of every pbr has a playing card on it (i.e. 4 of clubs, Queen of spades, etc). Well, if you guessed the number right, the beer was free. I won it twice.
  • Since this bar gets directv, I was able to watch the Liverpool/Chelsea match Sunday morning on fox soccer channel. Have I mentioned that I loved this bar?
  • The wedding food was some of the best wedding food I have ever had. Everything tasted great.
  • Fastest wedding I have ever been to.
  • Starting at the bar at noon was not my best idea. It made for a LONG day.
  • Traveling home Monday was a little painful. I might have had a headache.
  • Samantha may have been sleeping for her first father/daughter dance. She was not impressed.
  • Jumping into the pool at the reception was not a good idea. I was cold!
  • I did make into the ocean on Saturday. The water was not cold. It felt great.

It was a great time and the wedding and reception were great. The night before the wedding was really fun too! I would go back to OBX again in a heartbeat.
