Spring trip to Hatteras

We were treated very well today in Avon, Cape Hatteras. Strong winds from the SE at 25-30 knots with warm water. The house is currently shaking and the lights are going on and off. Will be putting some videos later on this week. Keep also track of John's site www.windinsight.com.
