Ocean Isle Beach (or simply Ocean Isle) is a small seaside town in southwest Brunswick County, North Carolina. It was incorporated as a town in 1959 and is part of the Myrtle Beach metropolitan area. The town of Ocean Isle spans the barrier island of Ocean Isle Beach, extending 5 miles from Tubbs Inlet on the west to Shallotte Inlet on the east, and a section of the mainland to the north along North Carolina Highway 904. Located at the southern end of North Carolina's Atlantic coastline, along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, Ocean Isle Beach has private homes, seasonal rentals, and various tourist attractions. |

A few jet skis went by plus one very small boat. Of course they had to go very slowly. |

Below: A very ripped USA Flag. This is something that really annoys Karen Duquette and so she mentioned it to the restaurant manager who said she was aware of it and a new flag has been ordered. Hmmmmmm! Karen has to wonder if that's just a common reaction statement to a complaint, or if it is true. She will never know. |

Below: While waiting for the food to come, Karen Duquette laid her sunglasses on the narrow counter in front of her and decided to take photos of their reflections in the sunglasses. After all, everyone needs entertainment while waiting for food. |

Below: The two RV Gypsies watched
a bird land on the wires just to the left of where they were sitting.
Then in flew down and landed on the edge of the pan holding dirty dishes
and ate some stuff off of the plates. So much for the illusion that owl
statues scare the birds away. |
