A great day to kick off the celebration

That's the airplane that the first flight high school students built. I think they're saying it's the first plane built and flown in the outer banks since the wright brothers.

Looks like a great time. I love walking downtown Manteo. It's got that Mayberry feel.

Yes! Love Manteo. The precious town and the historic homes. My daughter and I call it the "Georgetown" (VA) of the OBX. But, she drags out the name when she says it "Georrrrggggaaaa -town".

@BentMtn I find it funny hearing visitors call the town Man-tay-o

@SassyGirl https://youtu.be/AQXVHITd1N4?si=bsQYhVBh2NL1i2F_ I know it!!!!! So funny. I always think of Beetlejuice the movie when I hear it! Yeah, I'm silly. I have drilled a very close friend that lives there full time on the correct pronunciation.

Saw this online. Looks like it was a great time. I didn't know Jockey's Ridge has a boardwalk. Shout out to Joe Lamb for the video.

@BentMtn I love this and now it's gonna be in my head the rest of the night. Great one!

@SassyGirl -Man-tay'-o Hahahhaha!

I hate it that I missed The Brothers Comatose concert in April on Roanoke Island. They are supposed to be back though in October for the Blue Grass Festival there. Roanoke Island area has the best concerts. I'd love to see Josh Turner next month there.
