The September “Where Is This” photo by Cape Hatteras Electric member Harold Blakney features a rather jumbo-sized metal shrimp that once was a part of the former Native Seafood store’s sign on NC Highway 12 in Ocracoke on Ocracoke Island. The shrimp was recently removed but will soon be relocated to Ocracoke Seafood on the Ocracoke Harbor. The store now serves as the Beach Outfitters bike rental shop. Readers noted that island resident Russell Williams created the shrimp artwork. Robin Reams commented that “Mr. Shrimp has withstood many hurricanes as it proudly reminds us of one of North Carolina’s most beloved seafoods and an important part of our state’s industries.” The winning entry chosen at random from all correct submissions came from Anita McCants of Oak Island, a Brunswick Electric member.
