Port O'Call in Nags Head had some great food.  Don't know if that's still there or not.  Also, if you like beer and good sea-food in a laid back place, Awful Arthur's is pretty good....that's in Kitty Hawk I believe.  Haven't been there in a few years so they might have some newer ones.

 

As for places to see, I'd say the sand dunes, Wright Brothers Memorial, and the NC Aquarium on Roanoke Island.

 

Of course all of these places are on the northern outer banks.

I enjoyed driving that main road and seeing all the different lighthouses

My wife loves lighthouses! Might have to stop and take pictures. I also booked 12 hour long fishing charter and purchased surf fishing rod and reel. Will go out in the early morning and maybe evening, will try to catch few things.

Go to Ocracoke, ask around for someone to take you to Portsmouth Island.  Will cost about 20 bucks.  They will drop you off and pick you up later.  There is and abandoned town, used to be a coast gaurd station.  Groups "adpot" the buildings and still maintain the structures.  When you are not on the beach side you will need mosquito repellant.  On the beach side the mosquitos are not a problem.  Take a lunch.  If you are with a significant other.  Take your clothes off and run around naked or whatever.  You will most likely be totally alone.  If not no will bother you.  Dont be surprised if see other naked people in the distance.  Plenty of cool sea shells.  Plenty of quiet.  Very peaceful.

That sounds like a plot to a horror movie!

I went over to Porstmouth a few years ago with some locals (my wife is from Ocracoke).  I've never seen anything like the mosquitos over there. We were literally sprinting to shelter as a swarm of those suckers chased us. It was pretty damn funny looking back. It is a really cool place, but yeah bring bug spray.

      Anyone else think we’re getting too hyped

      Yes. It's fluff time anyways but it's getting a bit ridiculous. I don't believe this mix has ever worked for the Panthers before. Break .500 and then start the hype.

      While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.

      Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster.
