Outer Banks Posts

Looking ahead to mother's day, we have a special treat for your mom's special day. A classically trained violinist playing for your enjoyment, the Marvelous Marvin Jr. Come out and celebrate with us!

Bored? Well shuffle you and your loved one's down to the Outer Banks for a stay this summer in Corolla! The Lazy Dog - C0499 left nothing out when aiming to create a vacation home that would turn up the fun dial for everyone! (don't let this guy fool you... he won the next round!) Check out this gorgeous home, and book your stay for a summer vacation that is sure to wind up in the 'Best Vacay Everrrr' archives! This home has a few weeks left for Spring/Summer. Grab them before they're gone!

Don't forget! On Monday, May 1st the collection days for residential curbside services will change to the in-season schedule. Trash will be collected on Mondays and Fridays. Recycling will be collected every Monday. Please remember to place cans curbside no earlier than 5 p.m. the night before collection and no later than 5 a.m. the day of collection. Trash and recycling containers should have a two-foot clearance between them so that the collection trucks have clear access to the containers. Once trash/ recycling has been collected, the trash and recycling container must be rolled back to its appropriate storage location at least 25- feet off of the improved road.

Folks, Downtown Manteo is currently flooded due to strong northwest winds pushing water up from the sound. As tempting as it is to go joyriding in the water, PLEASE KEEP CARS OUT until the flood waters recede. Our restaurant is high enough to avoid the rising water, but many of our neighbouring homes and businesses are not, and continued traffic through these low-lying streets is only pushing water further up the sidewalk and into the buildings. Please be considerate and choose walking over driving if you want to come downtown. Please SHARE and THANK YOU!!

What's your favorite beach memory of a time with friends?

If you feel like vacations are for adventure, this week's local business highlight is sure to thrill.

First Flight Adventure Park is the perfect place to challenge yourself as you climb up to 50 feet with 50 obstacles and 14 ziplines. The varying skill levels are fun for both experienced and first-time climbers, and don't worry, they have a well-trained staff ready to help if you get stuck! The only question is, can you hang? ? ?
