this was some weird guy that kept following us around and asking for a picture. We finally gave in and took one so he'd go away.


Hmmm, feel that ocean breeze!












just some random hotel I thought I'd snap a pic of


This was at a beach called Blowing Rock(s) beach






There's that weird guy again.








He seems to be happy about something. One can only imagine what.


I'm quite proud of my beach pics - they turned out very well.

[CEE DOG]

Thanks Shane, Nice work on the beach pics! I have a sneaking suspicion we're missing a couple. Like the story and pictures as well as the sunset pic from the plane.

Did you piss in Johns cheerios before you took that picture? He dosn't look happy to see you :laughing:

 

[FastZR1]

Good work Shane.
The Blowing Rock beach really looks nice.
Thanks for the history lesson on the Coast Guard keepers house.
The "Meghanmobile"... that's a good one too.

I think these are staff pictures from the autogeek page. Dwayne's picture is, or seems to be anyway.

I figured that was the case. Just having fun

I've been away and just caught up on this thread. Very cool. Shane looked like a kid on Christmas morning. In every picture he's smiling, and on the beach, just staring awestruck. Thanks AG for making that possible. I truly enjoyed the photos and Shane's glee!

Just came across this thread this morning.

Shane, you're a lucky guy (like I needed to tell you that!).

As far as the weird guy in the pics, did you call anyone about him? Kinda creepy lookin'.

Nah. We just told him there was a hitman named Dwayne looking for him, then he got this real scared look and ran away. :bolt:


BTW, you do know that's me, right?

 

[A4 1.8tqm]

Thanks for sharing your pics! What an awesome trip, if it were me I probably would have spent most of my time talkin' to
Yancy (Creative Director, Webmaster, Photographer & Videographer) talking about video camera's and videography/photography related stuff! LOL Im the MAN

Are you going to Detail Fest 6? Something would have to be pretty important to stop me!
