Please Speak to Us

We want everybody to know we welcome your comments on this blog, its subject matter and what interests you particularly. We realize we have regular readers and would love to have your feedback especially.

We are most interested in recording the experiences of those in our community who have fashioned a lifestyle (especially surfing) in this remote, young, non-urban community and either grown up in or raised a family here. The focus here is local surf culture. Our Outer Banks retrospective is long overdue. The cup of local characters overflows.

We'll begin featuring interviews with those we consider iconic surfing and cycling figures on this part of our coast early in 2008. We expect you'll recognize someone you've seen in the water or on the road over the years, but didn't know anything about. You'll most certainly see someone you already know. You may even be a part of their story. So enjoy our story being told and please join in.

We can begin our conversation by using the "comments" button found at the end of each blog entry. Or you may want to email us at skip.saunders@gmail.com. If you read a few of the blogs already posted, you can get an idea of the kind of stories we want to tell. It may be a defining moment in your surfing career, the moment you realized how important surfing (or road cycling) was to you in choosing a place to settle, or even what motivates you to keep at it.

We would love to hear from you. And thank you for visiting our blog site. Your feedback will help shape it.
