Beach season is not over on the Carolina Coast

The real beach season is just starting.  The heat,  humidity and few crowds are gone but the water is still warm.  Come for a visit.  http://ow.ly/p3c8l  For more info, click the picture or the link.

Not just living the dream, but also part of it

Seven years after moving  to Carteret County to on the water, the dream and life seem to have merged.  I have no regrets.  Life along Raymond’s Gut is pretty nice.  #SOBX #crystalcoast http://ow.ly/orBXH  Click the link or the picture for more information.

Warm Mornings, Downpours In The Afternoon

We are still in a summer weather pattern.  I suspect the warm weather will stay with us for a while.  It will be a good time to visit the beach.  The humidity will soon disappear and the surf will still be warm.  There will be magic evenings.  Take my word for it.  These afternoon showers are not much of a price to pay for warm water.  #crystalcoast http://ow.ly/ooVsN  More information by clicking the link or the picture of the rain.

Rough Water Triggers Canadian Memories

Some rough water we experienced while fishing outside of Bogue Inlet makes me think of the Bay of Fundy and other spots where I have experienced some impressive waters in Canada.  For more information click the link or the picture.  #Canada #CrystalCoast http://ow.ly/ooPaU

August’s heat has a firm grip on the coast

Along the Crystal Coast we expect it to be warm in August.  However, fall-like blue skies are unusal.  Read more on how we cope with the heat by clicking the picture or the link.   #crystalcoast http://ow.ly/nOZrz
