Posted By on January 28, 2014

The universally loved magazine, Our State, Down Home in North Carolina, runs a gorgeous and cleverly creative Photo Essay in each monthly issue, and Dare County’s own Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station was one of those selected for the current issue’s essay on “Historic Kitchens”.
