wrightville beach dusk |
It's offically winter in my book. The christmas tree got put up yesterday, the beach water temp dipped into the upper 50's. This morning it was 29 degrees at ILM and 30 degrees at JMPN7 (NOAA buoy for Johnny Mercer's Pier). I was jacking my lips, a month ago, in a crowded line talking about how i couldn't wait for winter and the thinning of the line up but i had forgetten what 29 felt like. The three great things about winter in SE NC, thinned out surf, stump sound oysters and striped bass. More on these three great things to come. Oh yeah there are four great things and making some new boards for the New Year.
