40 Days in a Toyota

Gail and I will be blogging here (it's also linked on the right of this page) while we take our trip. Some of you have asked if we would blog and put up pictures. So if you're interested in our travels, visit 40 Days in a Toyota.

Moses Print For Sale

No, this isn't a repeat of the thread below...we have about 20 of the autographed Moses prints here at the church building and will be holding them for the next few weeks for anyone wanting one. They can be purchased with a cash or check donation, all of the proceeds going directly to the artist, Amber Elwood (checks can be made out to Amber Elwood).

These prints will ONLY be available during the work week and NOT be available on Sunday mornings, so please call the church office before coming by to purchase a print. Again, the remaining prints will only be available for a limited time.

This sounds like fun and it's free!

WHAT: Family Kayak Nature Tours "Where stress dissolves, your sense of wonder returns and your smile is genuine".

WHEN: Sunday Afternoons. These are 2-1/2 hour kayak tours starting May 24 through the end of the summer. Weather and conditions will determine the time of afternoon. Most will be leaving 2:00pm or later. As the weather warms up they will leave later, like 3:00 or 4:00pm. I can offer sunset tours or full moon tours if anyone is interested.

WHY: Because we love to be outdoors, we love to kayak and we have a chance to share this with others. So turn off the tv, log off facebook, twitter, etc and be still and explore the glory of what God created.

WHO IS DOING THIS: Pam and Matt Landrum, owners of The Outdoors Inn & Outfitters and Kayak Outer Banks

HOW MUCH: No charge. Free.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE: These tours are open to all Nags Head Church goers and their friends and friends of youth members. Anyone from age 4 and up. It's more a question of mindset. Can your child sit in a kayak for 2 hours? Can you?

DO I NEED EXPERIENCE? No. We can show you what you need to know for these tours in about 10 minutes.

DO I NEED TO BE IN GREAT SHAPE? No, but you do need to be reasonably fit. Ask yourself these questions; can I move my arms with relative ease? Can I sit on a low beach chair with my legs out in front of me? Can I bend my knees? Can I swim? Can I float when wearing a PFD (personal flotation device)? If you answered yes to these questions then you should be able to kayak.

WILL I GET WET? Maybe some drips in your lap. The boats do not usually tip over. We use very stable kayaks without skirts on them, so you will not be closed in. If the kayak does tip (extremely rare) you will just fall out. Since we tend to go in relatively shallow water you should be able to stand up.

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING? A sense of adventure, sunscreen, hat, water to drink in a recloseable container (we don't recommend sodas since they make you thirsty), snacks for kids and adults as needed, a camera (in a ziplock baggie or water proof bag. We have waterproof bags available to borrow).

WHAT DO I WEAR? Clothes and shoes you don't mind getting wet possibly. Water shoes or tennis shoes (we do not recommend flip flops since they tend to come off in the water), sunscreen, hat, sunglasses.

HOW MANY CAN GO? 15 people. We have 4 double kayaks and 7 single kayaks available.We also need at least 5 signed up to run a tour.

WHERE DO WE GO? Depending on the wind direction and weather we can/will run tours in Pea Island NWR, Alligator River NWR, Kitty Hawk Woods Maritime Forest, Roanoke Island area, Oregon Inlet Marina area (NOT near the inlet, only in the saltmarshes surrounding the marina and near Bodie Island Lighthouse. If you have a preferrence, let us know.

CAN I USE MY OWN KAYAK OR CANOE? Absolutely!

HOW DO I SIGN UP? Call Pam at (252) 473-1356 at least 3 days ahead of time.

Seeking Mo- He's back!



During the current series "The Journey - Start to Finish" Mo will be in a different location somewhere at NHC. If you find him come back here and tell us where he was. Don't spoil it at church for those seeking Mo. Just don't move him please.

Mo took a break the last couple of weeks but was back Sunday. Did you find him? He was hanging out at The Wave Cafe. Actually he was in the coffee donation jar. If no one saw him, it makes you wonder who's helping out with a buck or two???

Local TV celebs

These two NHCers have been seen acting on local television commercials:

Bethany McKenney at Bear Drugs. "The Bear cares".

Steve Wise at Stack 'Em High. Someone must have waved a waffle in front of him to get Steve in front of a camera.

Watch out Hollywood!
