OBX: Part 4
*NOTE* At an attempt to keep the amount of pictures in this post to a reasonable amount, I’ve only included highlights. The more-complete set can be found on the Photos page.

The adults (read over 16) took turns while the rest of us chased kids down at the not-so-shady park. Patrick also purchased crabbing lines and bait (chicken necks). They caught about 2 dozen crabs but only […]
