Happy Friday!
I apologize for publishing this post three days late. We have been busy completing our move to Carolina Beach. We are officially islanders now! We still have quite a bit of unpacking left to do though. I’m just glad that I finally got my desk back together yesterday, so I can work this morning (Monday, April 27, 2026).
The big event on the island this weekend is the Wings Over Carolina Beach Air Show. So, keep looking up!
Here are the events that I’m seeing around the island this weekend and next week. View the latest updates and additions.
