THE BEACH

Summers, our family would go to the beach: Morehead, Carolina, etc., where we would rent a cottage. in 1942, we had a downstairs apartment with Uncle Bush and Aunt Julia Nash on the Northern Extension of Carolina Beach.

In 1946, Mother and Daddy bought a cottage on the Southern Extension of the beach. It was oceanfront and the wreck of the Civil War blockade-runner Beauregard was on the sandbar in front of it.

More to Come.
