2018: The More Things Change The More They Stay The Same!

Yep, we are still here in Buxton!  Still weather the storms, the flooding (whether it be from the Sound or the Ocean) and continue to marvel at how the weather impacts our daily lives here on Hatteras Island. 

Fall of 2017 had us finishing (well almost) painting the outside of the main residence, and before the spring storms hit this year we installed new steps on the beach duplex.

2017 also brought us Beach Nourishment here in Buxton...but even the nourishment didn't stop our predictable winter/spring nor'easters from coming over the dunes onto Cottage Avenue.  Once the winds turn the experts predict we will have wider beaches than anyone has experienced in the past 30 years!

You would think renovating the main house and the beach duplex would keep us busy enough, but just this past December we bought a church that will ensure we never have a moment when we will have nothing to do.  Even so, we are determined to spend a little time on the beach, even so far as getting our 4wd annual pass and fishing licenses. 

2018, what else do you have in store for us?
