YAHOO! makes us FAMOUS ~ As one of the world's most .....

That's right folks. You heard it hear from the DID YOU KNOW it team of SUNSET BEACH ....

Sorry, we have been on hiatus for a while, went on vacation, cruising, snorkeling, eating, drinking, reading, relaxing, dancing ... BUT DID YOU KNOW IS BACK


Oh, now what were we suppose to be talking about?? Ah, ha ... Sunset Beach in North Carolina is Famous ...

We have been chosen as one of the WORLD'S MOST UNUSUAL ......

Not yet, let me tell you the source first... The source is YAHOO! TRAVEL ... an article written by Jamie Moore... WORLD'S MOST UNUSUAL .... (hang in there)

Well since I live less than a mile from Sunset Beach in North Carolina, I can tell you I just might have to dispute some of the content of her article.. I find it hard to believe she chose BIRD ISLAND, NEAR SUNSET BEACH, NORTH CAROLINA

I'll save the dispute for another time.... Just know this one thing...You have to walk on the beach, Sunset Beach, to BIRD ISLAND... There is no dividing line on the beach...that inlet of water between Sunset Beach and BIRD ISLAND filled in many, many years ago with sand ....

BIRD ISLAND IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST UNUSUAL BEACHES!! WAIT A MINUTE!!!

Now you are probably wondering what could be so unusual about a beach ....

The unusual part of BIRD ISLAND is the FAMOUS BLACK MAILBOX ...AKA ... THE KINDRED SPIRIT ...

As the story goes back in 1981 there was talk of developing the land known as BIRD ISLAND.... I reckon that story should be another blog because it's a long one...

Back to THE KINDRED SPIRIT, the famous black mailbox ... Well you see a local resident planted the mailbox in the sand, inserted a notebook and pencils inside, as a plea for people to write and help preserve the 1,300-acre barrier island. Next thing you know those developers went away (that's another story) and people started writing in the notebook about all their fond memories of BIRD ISLAND and coming to SUNSET BEACH. Depending on where you start walking from, the walk can take up to an hour.


More and more local people starting writing in the notebooks that were left by the local resident about memories, wishes, dreams, love stories and other words of encouragement. Visiting tourists starting writing in the notebooks as the word traveled about THE KINDRED SPIRIT...

To this day folks from all over who visit, walk the walk just to write a little something in the notebook as they sit on the bench, for whatever reason, and all who write are comforted as they pour their hearts out to the KINDRED SPIRIT....

Oh The Thinks That We Think .....

Think, Thinks and Thinking ..... Sure can make us crazy, sometime....

Let's start by thinking about our BUYERS .... Find a house, or two or three ...

Think we might want to make an OFFER .... Thinking ....

We, the BUYER AGENT thinks .... We know what a good offer is, we have counseled our client ...

Client makes an offer ... (WE) Think, Thinks, Thinking .... Are they kidding with this offer??


Why can Dr. Seuss make it seem so easy for those who Think, Thinks and are Thinking??

Back and Forth, Up and Down, Inside and Outside and All Around ....

What in the World Are Our Clients Thinking About??

And Then They Want to Offer on the Other House ...

Sometimes we have to deal with difficult clients, who think they know best ....

We think, thinks and continue thinking .... Hold our breath and wish for the best.
