This great shot comes from our tour guide extraordinaire, Cheryl "Shorty" Short during one of her tours yesterday.

She explains, "The stallion is doing what’s called "sneaking," which is usually to push the mare in a direction he wants her to go," be it for safety or isolation from another stallion, but Shorty and the tour were perplexed as to why he was leading her up the beach toward the water. The mare didn't seem to mind as she just sauntered along beside him.

Mark your calendars! Starting November 24th, TRiO’s very own Scotty & Mrs. Sharon will be hosting Monday night holiday trivia from 5-8pm during the Misfits Bars of Christmas, with a prize for the winning team each week. Our first trivia night kicks off with our friends at @outerbanksdistilling shaking up 4 specialty cocktails in the mezzanine!
