The neighborhood

Although exploring the inner and outer banks is fun, not every day is a travel day. De Anne and I still ride our bikes and get in some pool time and this is an ideal place for that. Miles of paved road with very little traffic are within the neighborhood.

As always, De Anne covers far more miles than I on the bike. As I rest from 5 to 6 miles of biking she doubles that and then launches her kayak from the community dock across the street. A mile of meandering paddling on Mill Creek takes her to the Neuse River.

Our cottage is the middle of 3 connected by a long front porch:

Community gazebo along the Neuse river. A good rest stop on a bike ride.

Neighborhood pool. Only once in 3 weeks have we had to share it with others.
