Roanoke Island, NC
Today is my last day here in Outer Banks. Time to pack up and get ready for the 8-10 drive back to NJ with a 1 and 8-year-old (this is fun!). I hope the traffic is light and we make it back in record time.
Since it is the last day I decided to take a ride and explore other parts of the Island. I drove out to Roanoke Island. Roanoke is where the first settlers landed way back in the late 1500’s. (Click here for some history.) This was formerly part of Virginia.
I went to the William B. Umstead Memorial Bridge and there was some nice scenery just waiting to be photographed.

I like how the roots from this tree twist and intertwine with the next one. I wonder how old this tree was here before it died.
Another view of the tree.
