Pam's Daily Wave...


Sunset from the Atlantic Inn, Hatteras

Good Morning and Welcome to my Atlantic Life in Hatteras šŸ˜Š


Before I head off on my travels, I'd like to start a new feature on my blog. As you know, I love, love, love writing, but one of my other favorite things to do, is to capture ā€œmoments in timeā€ on photograph, as ā€œmomentsā€ will never happen in exactly the same way, ever again - Some of these photos make it into my blog, whilst others do not.


At the end of the my week, I like to spend some time cozied up on the sofa (usually with a glass of red winešŸ˜‰), looking at the pics I've captured during my week. Often these images are of beautiful scenes captured at the beach, sunrises, soaring birds etc., but there are also others I did not take necessarily because of their esthetic beauty - they are just daily things that happen around me.....things that make me laugh, make me smile, surprise me, make my crazy little lady-brain go into over-drive, or spark my rather overactive imagination. Most of those photos don't make it onto my "Daily Wave", as often the images are not relevant to the post I've written that day. But, I got to thinking that some of these may cause You to laugh or smile, may brighten Your day, make You think a little more, spark Your imaginationā€¦....so, a new idea popped into my crazy little lady brain:-


On weekends I will post ā€œPam's Atlantic Weekā€ which will all be in picture format, with the only writing being descriptions/context of the photos if needed. Like the thoughts that sometimes bounce around my head, the pics will be rather random - the only thing they that will definitely have in common is, that these "moments" were captured during my week.


I'll aim on posting ā€œPam's Atlantic Weekā€ at some point on Saturdays, with no blog post on Sundays, unless my Saturday is super busy, in which case I may need to post the " Atlantic Weekā€ on Sunday.

Now, for those that like information succinct (although most of those will have left my post by now, as I can be rather ā€œwordyā€), my blog schedule will be as follows:


Monday ā€“ Friday ā€œPamā€™s Daily Waveā€

Saturday/Sunday ā€œPamā€™s Atlantic Week (in pics)ā€


Please remember, in future "Atlantic Week" posts there will be a limited number of words, so here goes the first....


"Pam's Atlantic Week"


This week's pics were all taken in Hatteras


Winter weekends at the inn - Bailey and Bodie waiting on the football to begin...

Of course, there was a sunrise or two...






My feathered friend, Percy Pelican


The many moods of my Hatteras Beach...











My morning return to the inn after some beach time

Mr Bailey....editor in chief

An incredible sunset behind the inn, on Thursday evening




The storms rolled in...


....and the Xtratufs were required!!





One of the many military planes that we see all the time here in Hatteras

Our new birdbox.....A British mailbox šŸ˜Š

Another wild Friday night in the off season at the Atlantic Inn


Well, I've still got quite a few things on my trip prep "to do" list.....finish packing, download audible books, last minute shopping, print out my itinerary (old habits die hard....I always like to have a paper back up in case my phone fails), ensure all electronics are charged, choose a couple of books for flights, find passport etc. so I had best get going šŸ˜‰


Next time you hear from me, I'll be starting my adventure....will post a quick blog early on Monday, before I leave for Raleigh šŸ’• Speak with you then....









Until Next Time...

Take care, Stay Safe and....Take some time over the weekend to relax, you deserve it!

Love and Hugs,

Pam

I love this idea. Of course, I love your daily posts but I love the idea of a pictoral of the week with it's real moments. I love to see the pups tucked in their beds. I am so excited for you and your upcoming trip and definately look forward to your perspective of Ayr. To me the pictures that you share are those chosen because of your soul and spirit. As Ayr is your home, I cannot wait to see what you have to share. Safe travels!

I never tire of seeing your beautiful pictures! I loved the one of the your yard through the fog, the one of the Point(?), and the the Xrtatufs. They are great for Ohio slushy walks and hikes! Safe travels and thank you for what you do.
