Crystal Coast - Morehead City

        

Hello Again From The French Hen's Nest,

   My son and his family recently went to Emerald Isle, NC for a week, and I was invited.  We stayed on the sound side, and caught crabs, and fished.  It is still a little cool, but it was still a wonderful weekend.
   Whenever I go there, I like to go to Morehead City. It's a beautiful area, an historic little town just across the bridge from Emerald Isle and Atlantic Beach.  It's located on Bogue Sound, and there are many historic homes, and great seafood restaurants.  
  
  If you ever visit Emerald Isle, be sure to visit the Morehead City waterfront.  I'm featuring a few homes that are located on Bogue Sound.  These aren't just summer cottages, but lived in all year.

This is a grande old home

This is right on the sound, so inviting

   You can see the sound in the background

 

Love the palms

I love the simplicity of this little cottage

I checked this one out, only 2 blocks from the beach.

This is a lovey Victorian

       Hope that you have enjoyed this little tour.  I truly love this area, the smell of the salt air, the breeze, the sound of the waves crashing,  who wouldn't want to live near the ocean?  I grew up near here, and always thought that I would one day move back. Many years have passed, but I don't think I've totally given up on this dream.  Is there a place that you dream of?

Till Nest Time,

Jeannie
