Wrightsville Beach, N. Carolina

The North Carolina Coast is inconsistent and pocked. When you're there you'll see the eastern horizon stretch as far as the eye can see and then seemingly drop off suddenly where the sun and water intercept. You'll see the earth curves ever so slightly as you lose yourself in the sea of blue.

Interrupted by surf, dunes, sand in your pocket and between your toes this place was not what i had in mind when i thought of the tar-heel state. Catching up with my friend Gaby Wentworth, i spent a week at the beach at her family's Wrightsville Beach home. Relaxing in the lap of luxury i managed to fit in bouts of work and snap off a couple photos to share with you.

The Pacific Coast @ Oil City

5:30am Wednesday Jan. 28th

Rolling out of bed i threw a couple last minute additions into an already over stuffed backpack. Breakfast, a quick brushing and out the door. Destination Oil City. Tacoma, Olympia, Aberdeen, Humptulips and Queets. It was mid afternoon by the time we arrived and the sun hovered in the high tide sky.
Hiking in a couple miles we made camp above the high water mark amongst the driftwood.
Thursday and Friday were spent exploring and taking photos. Here are some pics for the adventure.
