June 7th - Locust, NC, to Nags Head

​Over 300 miles of driving took us finally across the wide Alligator River and Roanoke Island to the Outer Banks National Seashore, where we camped at Oregon Inlet. Our campsite is just a short walk over the dunes to a beautiful wide beach and Atlantic surf. The dogs enjoyed romping in the water, but we had to be careful not to lose them to the rip current. We didn't lose a dog, but the Ocean claimed one of our floating toys.

This is a dry campsite so we bought a DC-powered fan to help cool the trailer without air conditioning. But we didn't need it the first night, as there was a steady breeze all night long.
