July 4

Happy Independence Day to all of our readers!

You can read more about our Declaration of Independence here:

And you can read about our Constitution here:

And the Bill of Rights here:

These are wonderful words that have served us well for more than two centuries. May we continue to cherish the ideals expressed in these documents.

Our latest Ocracoke Newsletter is the second half of my father's short journal. I call it Remembering Growing up on Ocracoke. You can read it here.
