I pray all will be safe. I don't live there but I feel as it is home. Which I hope will be one day soon. I have tried to listen to the island radio on the computer but it is not on. Do you know when or if it will be available again. Thanks & keep us up on the going ons. God Bless!

We'll all hope and pray for a storm passage with minimal or no damage. I'll be on Ocracoke as soon as possible afterward and you have a standing invitation to sit on my rental pizer for some home-made ice cream and cheesecake!Stay safe.
