Yesterday we climbed Jockey's Ridge, the largest natural sand dune on the East Coast of the USA. Depending on the wind and weather, it varies between 80 and 100 feet tall.
We also brought the dog with us. She made it all the way to the top of the dune and even ran up the steepest section. Pictures of her pleased, happy grin of achievement will be up when we get home and can download them.
That evening, we finally got to see The Lost Colony for the first time in 14 years. I still enjoyed it.
Does anyone who's seen the play, do you remember if it had a different ending? One where Governor White comes back three years after he left and finds the fort/town deserted with "CRO" carved into a tree or post?
The reason I ask is because the ending we saw last night has them fleeing a Spanish Warship, and I don't know of any Spanish expeditions that ever mentioned encountering the Roanoke settlement.
