November 20, 2006: Ocracoke Island and Cape Fear, North Carolina.

Folks here try to ride out the high tides and hurricanes on the Outer Banks in their telltale stilt homes.

The shoreline changes here over time and some of the lighthouses around here had to be picked up and moved. This one is the oldest one on the Outer Banks in continuous operation and a family still lives below and operates it.

The battleship USS North Carolina sits in 25 feet of mud on the banks of the Cape Fear River. The docent who showed us around was a 90 year old veteran who served on the ship during WW2.
