Make A Payment
Happy Birthday Marines!
Last week I happened to be travelling in Florida and was waiting for my plane in Orlando while reading a book. I was startled to hear a gate agent at Southwest airlines yell a “yahoo” and started applauding. Looking up I saw a group of young Marines walking through the concourse in full gear. Her appreciation for their service soon spread like wildfire and within 30 seconds nearly every passenger in the area was on their feet and applauding the service of these young men. It was quite a scene.

Memory Monday 10/21/13
Somewhere over the rainbow
This week’s Memory Monday Photo submission comes to us from Jen Beard of Lewis Center, Pennsylvania who stayed with Outer Banks Blue this past June in the property “Beachcomber’s Paradise.”
Back to school for many Outer Banks “Blue” kids!
School started for many students & employees across the Outer Banks and throughout North Carolina this week. Their new book bags, shoes, and lunch boxes can be found throughout the halls. The families that travel for the next few weeks share a different experience on the OBX. Many are possibly traveling without kiddos, from a state where school has not started, or they are bringing their babies for their first glares of the sand covered beaches!
Welcome to North Carolina!
When you cross the state line headed to your vacation home, there are a lot of things to look at and absorb. Are you already contemplating your next visit? As you return home from the Outer Banks, what is the last thing you look at and remember all year while you wait to return? =&0=&=&1=&”. During my college days, I found a great job working my way through a local resort to become a Manager and later traveled to promote travel to the Outer Banks of NC. I landed a position with Outer Banks Blue and have been working in the Vacation Rental industry a combined total of over 14 years now!
I have had the pleasure of touching the lives of many families, watching them learn and live the Outer Banks history, while making memories to last a lifetime! This position has been so fulfilling and I will take the memories of crossing the bridge and passing that Mile Post 1 sign with me to the grave. I now live in Camden, NC which is about an hour commute. I enjoy all of the sites along the way, especially counting the different state tags I pass along the way. I enjoy comparing statistics with the visitors on our website through analytic research with those that I meet & greet on the roads. It has been an honor to paint the pictures online using photography, videos & elusive descriptions of the vacation homes. Families unpack their lives in these home and it has been one of the most amazing experiences in a career. There are many shops, diners and stops you can make on your way to and from the Outer Banks year round, and we look forward to counting your tag as you pass by on your next visit!
