You should do something about that.<br />I come every year and all I hear about is Phillip and Lou Ann. When I finally met you both one night, I knew why. You may be Captain, but she owns the Island.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-85344489509411002802010-08-02T21:08:55.354-04:002010-08-02T21:08:55.354-04:00Happy Birthday Philip and Lachlan!Happy Birthday Philip and Lachlan!mandypdavishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14068175477887795633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-1112162939892117362010-08-02T19:09:29.557-04:002010-08-02T19:09:29.557-04:00Hope you had a great birthday, Captain Phillip.=) ...Hope you had a great birthday, Captain Phillip.=) And Happy Birthday to Lachlan!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-20603570969348904682010-08-02T18:57:08.770-04:002010-08-02T18:57:08.770-04:00Happy Birthday Cap'n Phillip & Lachlan!

Good-byes are tough...especially for the one leaving the island.<br /><br />Admittedly, I usually stand alone on the rail & quietly have misty eyes for the first 30 or so minutes of every ferry ride as we slowly pull out of "The Ditch" making our way towards Swan Qtr. I try to soak up every memorable view of the Ocracoke water tower and lighthouse as both gradually fade away from my sight; etching anything and everything I can into my mind, while the ferry steadily churns through the shining Pamlico. <br /><br />Arriving at Ocracoke and coming into beautiful Silver Lake Harbor sends my heart soaring, but leaving that unique and charming place on earth, is always so darn tough...even after so many years! <br /><br />I hope your separation will be a short one, and that you both will be together again before too many days pass!<br /><br />And, won't that amazing view that touches such a deep place in our very soul as one returns to the island, be a thrill which most of us never, ever tire to see!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-68120935834806047792010-08-02T10:34:30.018-04:002010-08-02T10:34:30.018-04:00Happy Birthday, Philip & Lachlan!
