Beautiful Sunrise For Thursday, January 26

brentn — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 16:07:58 +0000

This winter on the Outer Banks has been unseasonably warm. For people that enjoy the great outdoors, it’s been awesome. For fishermen, not so much as they are waiting for a good cold snap to help bring down the striped bass that have been hanging out in the Chesapeake Bay for the last few weeks. With this great weather, we have had some of the best sunrises/sunsets that I’ve ever experienced in January. Thank you Tammie from Ocean Watch OBX for capturing another great sunrise at Avalon Pier!

Inflatable Surfboards: The “Surf Air”

brentn — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 20:53:36 +0000

For about $640, you can own an inflatable surfboard made of PVC-coated fabric. Just think of all the baggage fees you’ll be avoiding at the airport. Depending on how much you surf travel, in 4-6 years it might pay for itself. The downside: it’s an inflatable raft with fins and I seriously doubt it will turn on a dime like your high performance thruster. Needless to say, someone will find this useful.
