Lifegaurd Station

Hello Everybody,

 Here's a shot of the Oregon Inlet Livesaving station. Located just over the Bodie Island bridge on the Outerbanks of North Carolina. I can just picture the ghosts of the lifegaurds in the tower. At the time this photo was taken, it just sat in disrepair, and acting as a sand dune. I wondered why would the state just let this sit and get buried? This is such a unique piece of history. the building in the back, that is just about buried, is a more modern quarters.
I drove by this last year and didn't recognize it. The state went in, dug it out, and restored it. I developed this in black and white with some grain to make it look old.
Hope you liked this, and will continue to come back.

Jeff
