OBX Pride - Day One


We arrived in Nags Head last evening and after dropping off our gear at the beach house where we are staying, we went over to the beautiful beach house of one of the boyfriend's clients. We had a very pleasant visit and his friend is amazing. She and her husband operate a foundation called the Achievable Dream (her husband founded it) which strives to change the lives of disadvantaged children.

After that, we went to the Outer Banks Brewing Station where America's Got Talent star Derrick Barry (pictured above) and Las Vegas Puppeteer Comedian Jerry Halliday perform before the event turned into a dance party. Derrick Barry put on an amazing show and I'll hopefully be talking with him early next week and will do a post based on that interview.

Today, the weather is gorgeous and we will be heading up to the main Pride grounds where events get underway at 11:00 AM. Unfortunately, the ocean is flat, so the surf board won't see any use today.
