Finally, some down time. Mom and I left Kinston for a trip to Wilmington, but we never made it. We skirted Wilmington to check out a lake without any accessible shoreline. Then we stayed near Oak Island, which is where we had dinner.

When we said to the waitress, "There isn't anything around here." She said, "Yup, it's always like that. Even in the summer." We decided we liked that.
