Several days ago I had dinner with a group of family and friends. Discussion turned to naps, a popular mid-day ritual on Ocracoke. A show of hands revealed that everyone at the table but one, as well as our waitress, had enjoyed a nap that day. And these were not all old codgers. Ages ranged from mid-thirties to early sixties.
We're not always lucky enough to take a nap, but when we have a day off, or finish our lunch early, or can otherwise sneak it in, we often opt for a short nap.
Just one more reason to celebrate life on Ocracoke Island.

Philip,
ReplyDeleteIt must be nice to be able to take a nap all the time.... Some of us only have one day off every other week.
Signed,
An Islander that never stops.
Another reason to love Ocracoke....
ReplyDeleteI dream of coming for the spectacular beach.
ReplyDeleteI yearn to come for the freshly baked bread.
And now I find out you have *naps*, too ? ! ?
Buh-bye, Indiana! Ocracoke is calling!
