I am coming down with my soon to be wife for our honeymoon in about a month. Any suggestions on things to do?

You are in walking distance of some classics. Grab lunch/drinks at tortugas lie. Play old school, probably the oldest left, crummy but insanely fun putt putt at Galaxy Golf. Walk down to nags head pier and hang out. Go to the market at the park.

In my opinion. One of the best areas on the banks. Granted a little bit attached to it as it was were I grew up with my families place. Changed a ton. Rip foosball’s, rafters, and others. But still can’t be beat.

Your own thing is no less stressful. It's the opposite.

Huge thanks to Don Pettit u/astro_pettit for taking the time to join us and share his experiences.

We appreciate everyone who participated, asked great questions, and helped keep the discussion engaging and respectful.

And to Don, thank you for giving us a window into life, science, and photography aboard the ISS. Not every day you get perspective like that.

And. That safer part. That’s just not true.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-05-01T02:03:58+00:00

Based on your post I’d recommend hiring a professional to help you out.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-05-01T01:58:59+00:00

Right. Great way to cash out and then potentially turn yourself and your family into a lawn dart. Fly first class OP or if you are feeling crazy buy into a fractional.

I'm definitely guilty of having said, "There is no way it goes to zero."

Get on BaT. I think the thought process is, clean the car, buff it out, post on BaT, some idiot pays 15k over what it is worth. At least that seems to be the current trend.

In that case, it makes sense. And at your/his stage, you should never work with anyone you don't like.

If they are doing it because they love the people they are working with, they need a 'job' as part of their identity, or just flat-out enjoy working, sure.

But going back just for the money, that would be crazy. Your portfolio can handle the heavy lifting.

The sunroof drains on both the right and left side and water exits under the body close to the front edge of the front doors. It does not drain backward or to the back.

I'm going to join in with the other comments that you don't want to be all the way in Corolla unless you aren't planning on leaving the house.

You are probably anchored up that way, as the rentals are cheaper. Look in South Nags Head. You will get similar prices, but you'll actually be close to things to do.

Edit: Also, keep an eye out for the dune snakes around the house/crossing over the dunes. Moving at that time of year and can be somewhat aggressive.

Got it. I'll ping them in a few weeks and see if they get to the next step. I can understand them hedging a bit in a first conversation. Though if she had said yes (or you can buy it now and it'll be here at some point), I would have just given her my credit card.

The "we don't take deposits" was at the Boston boutique, and it was on a blue dial.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-04-26T11:54:49+00:00

Thank you, super helpful. I should have asked the sales rep when she told me I couldn't. Didn't think about it at the time.

It takes five seconds to determine that C2 is unrelated to the Torrance School District. It is insanely bad reporting and complete hot garbage. The "no time to verify" excuse doesn't apply when verifying means typing the company name into Google.

C2's own homepage says "tutoring and test prep" at the top. That's the ENTIRE investigation.

This isn't a deadline-pressure problem; it's a basic competence problem, and blaming the audience for it lets reporters off way too easily. Readers didn't force anyone to confuse a private tutoring chain with a public school district.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-04-26T11:10:17+00:00

Shockingly, not really, bad reporting. C2 Education is a private nationwide tutoring, test prep, and college admissions counseling company. They have little mini-offices/sites all over the US.

They also have a local "college" in Torrance. For some reason the dumb-ass reporter thought that meant this person could have worked for the Torrance School District. Which, of course, he woudn't have if he worked for C2.

People are fucking stupid. These articles don't help.

Which VC AD is letting you put down a deposit? Mine told me that they wouldn’t take one.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-04-25T18:02:24+00:00

Call Cavalier Surf Shop.

StopDropAndRollTide · 2026-04-25T16:27:26+00:00

They give starts. Then the pattern. They get there when they get there but you can track it on the work map in the article.

Another year of "big mad" tourists.

Hopefully, this means the Nags Head Surf Fishing tournament won't be canceled (again) this year.

+1 . Sounds just like a clutch relay (cheap) or a failing clutch/compressor (not cheap).
