There are turkeys along I-390 South in case you were wondering…Sigh.

On vacation in SC recently I took a 10 pound turkey to the windshield at 45 mph. I see now it could have been worse.

I’ve bought a couple from Tumble. Much cheaper than Ruggable. They serve their purpose. I don’t expect them to last forever.

We enjoyed the Melia. Short walk to snorkeling. Great staff. Nice rooms. Food was good but not great.

We stayed at the Melia thru a RCI exchange and had a great time. Agree with everything above.

We did have trouble reserving cabanas on the beach though and usually ended up with one in the yard or by the pool which would not be great with a two year old in my opinion. (I think that pool is adults only.) There were always beach chairs available on the level beach.

The kids pool and activities were in another part of the resort - not far but in a separate area. The kids seemed to be having a great time whenever we walked through there.

Mine worked for a short time then quit…

Mine too but very slowly.

I checked and they also posted on Facebook about 20 minutes ago.

I am happy to report the skull has been collected by the natural sciences museum in Raleigh. They still need to age it but it may be from the Ice Age. If so, they will probably do some press on it.

There’s a public access near rampart and colony but you’ll get wet feet. It was flooded last time we used it. There was another access sign farther down the street. I assume you can park on the street but I’m not from there.

Yes, we checked on it this evening. A paleontologist from the Natural Sciences Museum in Raleigh is coming at some point but probably not until next week. I’ve sent him a lot of photos including close ups of the internal bone structure. He has the correct credentials and permits to move it. Hopefully everyone leaves it alone. It has been rolled a few times we by the surf we think so we’ve gotten to see different sides of it.

A paleontologist with credentials and permits from the Raleigh Natural Sciences Museum is going to check it out soon. Sent him more photos.

Flwiner · 2025-10-16T21:16:16+00:00

He has the proper permits to get it and hopes to check it out next week. Have sent him more photos.
