Hello from Rodanthe. My dear husband and I are here celebrating our 50th Anniversary. The drive down was easy and our first stop was at our daughters. She and her family took us to a lunch reservation at Blue Moon. The Grands had fun while we enjoyed our drinks out back. Lunch was delicious and I really loved the Swordfish and grits with broccoli in a bourbon brown sugar sauce. Next we headed to our rental and loved it at first sight. Our ocean view…

Happy 50th! That’s quite an accomplishment. We will be celebrating our 50th (God willing) in 2029. We are hoping to stay in the same ocean front house in SNH that we honeymooned in. Thanks for the beautiful pictures!

Thanks for the beautiful pictures! LollyGirl Thanks Lolly, sounds like a romantic plan for’29. Gotta admit it’s special staying ocean front. We were reminiscing about past rentals including the KH flat top in ‘74 that went for $125 a week.

We stayed at the two houses that are no longer there, plus the house just past the blue one in your picture. The house which would’ve been right beside the blue one that is no longer there was our favorite. Just amazing views from the whole home. Hot tub on the oceanfront deck. We stayed there probably 5 times. It was so nice to sit on the deck with the beach right below. Was especially easy for the walks on the beach. Down the steps right into the sand. Have alot of memories from that strip of homes there.

The road is about one lane cleared of sand with high dune piled on both sides. Driveways are cut open. Couldn’t see the house from the road. Just so sad for those folks.
