I love Ocracoke Island!

Called "The Pearl Of The Outer Banks" it's the last inhabited island in this string of islands which lie 30 miles off the North Carolina coast.

Most of the island is designated as National Seashore which means its rugged charm is free of condos and billboards. Striking in its beauty, it makes my heart race just thinking about it.

Imagine my surprise when I received the following blog post from Ocracoke Island Realty's blog. These photos are submissions to the Realty's yearly contest for best photo of Ocracoke Island and they are wonderful.

Take 10 minutes right now, click on this link, and scroll through the photos. I promise you'll feel so relaxed when you get to the end.
