Today the beached Atlantic right whale stranded on a shoal just off Cape Lookout was euthanized. NOAA’s fisheries service said the animal was in too bad of shape to be saved. The whale had been stranded for several days.

My favorite place to eat and drink on the Crystal Coast is having another Super Bowl Party this year! This is good news, because I missed most of last year’s festivities. Oh yeah, they’ll be grilling out again too.

I had to go to court today in Beaufort. But let me warn you, be prepared to hunt for a parking spot there if you have a court date. It’s hard to believe they expect all these people on the docket to find a parking place anywhere near the courthouse.

Cedar Point – Bogue House Restaurant is an excellent Crystal Coast dining choice. If you’re looking for some eastern Carolina style food this is the place for you. Its a small place with big taste.

Emerald Isle - I went on a date Saturday night and decided to head to Rucker John’s for dinner. This is one of the most popular restaurants on the Crystal Coast. It’s reasonably priced, the serivce is usually decent, and the food is consistent.

Well today ushered in a cold snap that will bring two nights of hard freeze to the Crystal Coast. And after the hard freeze, I guess the next few days are soft freezes? Its going to get down to 18 and 19 degrees tonight and tomorrow night. After that the night time temperatures will be in the 20’s.

I am in need of an author who checks the surf regularly in Atlantic Beach, and would like to provide daily, or near daily surf reports. I really can’t pay much for this, so i know it is going to be hard to find someone willing to spend 10 to 15 minutes a day posting a report. But there is money to be made in this.

Well today it got pretty windy along the Crystal Coast. I saw this morning they were calling for winds of 40 to 45 MPH. Then just a minute ago, I heard there was a strong storm cell moving through the area that could produce winds up to 65 MPH.

I have wanted to develop a rental by owner site for Emerald Isle, and the rest of the Crystal Coast for about a year now. Well a few weeks ago, I quit slacking and actually started programming in the evenings and weekends. And now I’m proud to say that there is a new Emerald Isle Rental by Owner site available for use by those seeking a rental property, and owners looking to list a property. While working on this project I received a lot of positive feedback from rental owners and other people seemed to think it was a good idea.
