Our house is very near the shore. I'm hoping to go and see it - I need to call my friend in the Coastguard and see if he knows when it will detonated.

Just walked down to the local insure rescue station (GAFIRS) at Stokes Bay and asked if they knew when it would be detonated. Apparently it was done....and wasn't very exciting. No explosion, streams of water, or anything worth seeing....

Ho hum....

Cheers,
