Speaking of Kitty Hawk, I was searching on info on how badly they got
hit with the hurricane. It seems the park survived OK, but the road on
the island got torn up pretty bad. I just hope I can still go to see
the Temptations on the 14th.

With my quick scan I didn't see anything mentioned in the group. Does
anyone have onfo on how things will be in Dec.?

Depending on where you're interested in going on the Outer Banks, it could
be interesting. I read a new half-mile wide inlet was created north (?) of
Hatteras Village and another waterway to the south, cutting that town off.
However, according to AVWeb (and I quote):

Wright Site Undamaged By Isabel

The Wright Brothers went to Kitty Hawk for the wind but they would have
been blown away by conditions last week. The historic site of the first
powered, sustained flight escaped undamaged when Hurricane Isabel made
landfall on the Outer Banks. "There's a little bit of standing water. We
fared well," National Parks Service spokeswoman Mary Doll told AVweb.
"Wright Brothers (Memorial) really sustained no damage." She said a couple
of nearby airport runways were covered in sand washed in by the storm surge
but they were quickly cleared. There was also some building damage in nearby
communities.

Of course, no promises between now and then.
I'm flying down (commercial) to NC in November and have made arrangements to
rent and fly from RDU to FFA to meet my mandatory pilgrimage requirement...
and also to beat the crowd.
