The Outer Banks ~ North Carolina

This card arrived in my mailbox on June 18.  I love the lighthouses - they are fantastic with their black and white stripes!  The lighthouse at the left is Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, and the one on the right is Bodie Lighthouse.  Links to National Park Service websites for both are below ~

The bust is of Orville Wright.  Orville and his brother Wilbur are famous for the first successful airplane flight at Kitty Hawk, NC in 1903.  Learn more about the Wright Brothers here ~

The photo on the far right is Elizabethan Gardens.  This looks like a wonderful place to visit. You can stroll through the gardens and enjoy the flowers, or you can have a wedding, party or any other kind of celebration here.  Take a look for yourself at their website ~
