The girls at Bear Park downtown New Bern. I thought this kind of thing belonged in Alaska myself!
Pirates are a biiig deal on the coast of N.C. Blackbeard's home port was Beaufort. And yes, it's pronounced differently up there. You'll catch a lot of crap if you say it the way we do down here! LOL Catherine is doing her best impression of Capt. Hook I think.
This is a bear they made when they bricked the street. I'll have to find out why the bear is such a big deal there. It is the city mascot dating from about 300 years ago. I believe 2008 is their 300th anniversary. They're already preparing for a big blowout.
The trip to New Bern was great! All us girls went shopping while the guys stayed home and shot skeet. I'll have to practice a lot to out do Bubba now! He has definately improved! These are some pics from down town New Bern, including the birthplace of Pepsi. Those pics we'll post for Poppie!
