Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
That one’s really good. The favorite for most people is maple bacon, it’s ok but I prefer chocolate. There’s probably donut places like this all around. I think Duck is just in a few NC towns, started in Duck NC at the coast.
Cool story hate you lost the gun. North Carolina has a very unique coastline compared to the rest of the country. Look up Graveyard of The Atlantic. We have seven lighthouses. To my knowledge Hattaras is the only open to climb year round. Carteret County in the east is my favorite beach destination. I’ve been to other beaches and non are better than the other, it’s what you like and get used to. I hear Wilmington and Writesville beach are great, haven’t been since the early 80s. Rentals at the coast are outrageous! NC mountains has Blue Ridge Parkway. Anywhere from Boome on past Asheville is good. I don’t recommend Asheville, it’s very liberal. Been years since I went. Air B&B is probably a little cheaper than rentals. I don’t get to the mountains much and mainly go to the coadt. We have inner banks in addition to the outer banks. That area has a lot of history because the first settlers settled there as opposed to staying on the islands. Albemarle sound, Edenton & Bath are full of history. Wish I could recommend more. If I travel I usually go out of state. I highly recommend Charleston SC. Savanna Ga is like Charleston, never been.
