Day 71

Hey all!

This morning we woke up bright and early to go kayaking.  It was not the most beautiful day, but it was really, really fun.  My friends and I were the only ones on the kayak tour so it was nice and relaxed, just us and the guide.  We learned some fun facts about the Outer Banks of North Carolina, like what the weird beaver-looking animal we saw yesterday was called (a nutria, if you're wondering).

After our kayaking endeavor, we went to the site of the Wright brothers' first flight.  It was really nice, there's a small museum and memorial on the site, and it was very interesting to see where aviation really began.  It's something North Carolina is known for, so it was a must-see.

We rounded out our day by stopping at the tallest sand dune on the east coast and then headed back to the house.  We're now having a relaxing afternoon watching Freaks and Geeks on DVD (an old show, cancelled too soon, look it up!).  Sitting on the couch gave me the perfect opportunity to make today's earrings.


I wanted to see what would happen if I started wrapping wire around itself rather than around a bead.  I know they're a little weird and may take some getting used to but I'm very proud of them.


I finished them off with some cool yellow beads, because I love the look of yellow and gold together and yellow is bright and happy, which is how I'm feeling on this lovely break from school.

Back to Freaks and Geeks!

Love and Beads,
Eve
