Currituck Beach Lighthouse - Currituck County, North Carolina 

I hope none of my friends in North Carolina were offended by my "chigger city" remark in yesterday's post. The truth of the matter is that coastal North Carolina is beautiful this time of year. The crowds are gone, the air is cool and the autumn light has a special glow.

The photo above was taken in early October of 2008 from the grounds of the Whalehead Club in Corolla. In the background is the 1875 Currituck Beach Lighthouse, which is still in operation.


The Art Nouveau style Whalehead Club was completed in 1925. It is now owned by Currituck County and is part of the Currituck Heritage Park
