Digital Jones' Locker

On a warm and cloudless Saturday in October, Lauren and I took a trip to the Atlantic coast. Our first stop was the town of Wilmington, NC. It is a cute town on the mouth of the Cape Fear River. It has a charming downtown with many shops and restaurants. On that Saturday there was also a farmer's market, an art fair, and a NCAA rowing regatta. The highlight was a visit to the Kilwin's fudge shop. I'm sure we'll visit again. In the afternoon we headed to Kure beach. It was there that a giant, salty, frothy wave climbed up the sand and engulfed our beach blanket and all of its contents including Lauren and our digital camera. Lauren, although wet, survived. The camera did not. This is one of the last pictures to be taken with that brave camera that captured memory after memory for nearly three years. Good bye camera.
