Quiet Benches Ocracoke- is a quiet and glorious ti Quiet Benches
Ocracoke- is a quiet and glorious time to visit the island. The air is clear, roads are empty, and the beaches are open. I wandered around a few mornings ago thinking of all the fun pictures that are taken during the summer on these same benches. Please post a few if you have them. Or come visit and take a few snaps on your travels about town. 
Books to be Red is open from about 11:30 to 3;30 each day. Stop in if you are in the island.

Are you one of my note writing, card hoarding frie Are you one of my note writing, card hoarding friends? Please check out @saratogagrammy and her fabulous cards. I was just mindlessly scrolling through Instagram one night and saw these posted. I am so happy to have them for myself and will be sending them out to a few friends. Just hit her up here and she will get in contact.  Everyone loves getting a sweet handwritten note.

And it is another foggy day on Ocracoke. As soon And it is another foggy day on Ocracoke. 

As soon as we see fog I think, Are the ferries running? Will my package go out in the mail? Will my packages arrive in the mail? Will I be stuck in the other side? If I am on the other side will I have to sleep in my car? Damn, the ferries won't run so no visitors can come. I guess I have to cancel my doctor's appointment because I may not be able to get home. 
Personally, I love the fog. It gives such a quiet, ghostlike quality to the island. I am always happy not to be driving on the interstate or in a big city during fog. I probably wouldn't like it so much. So enjoy the fog if you are out I. It today.

I so love the live oaks and cedar trees on the law I so love the live oaks and cedar trees on the lawn of Books to be Red. Every day I am in awe of their beauty and resilience. One of the trees even has a handle to help kids make the climb up easier. When I was a kid, my mom would run me out of the house to get sunshine. I would take my book, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and then climb a tree to read the afternoon away. The Days of me climbing trees are long gone but I do like to remember them. 
I am reading this, just enjoying the author's take on the life of trees.

When you send a book to a customer that has never When you send a book to a customer that has never been to Ocracoke, you include some marketing stickers and island brochures. This book is heading all the way to Two Harbors, MN on the shores of Lake Superior. I hope Chris will choose to visit Ocracoke for a 2021 vacation.
I hope you are making your plans for the upcoming season.
