Sandbagging, Thanks, and Kudos

As most of you know, the 4WD access is closed today from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. so that our crews can perform maintenance and repair it in the wake of the workout it's been getting.  Work is also underway to protect it from any future overwash, in the event winter weather kicks the surf up again.

Here are some photos of work to install sandbags near Mirlo:

 These photos come to us from our field staff who take the time to snap the shots and send them to us when they can.  Most of them come from Pablo Hernandez, who is no stranger to this kind of situation.  Check out this profile of him that we posted on this blog last year.  A big thanks to Pablo for his help! Again!

Other notes this morning: Our Pamlico Sound ferries are returning to normal schedules after adding additional routes for the Thanksgiving holiday.

And kudos to the employees of the Ferry Division! They just received the Governor's Award for Excellence!
