Good Reading at
Book Nook
By Dot Miller
Many area residents and visitors have discov
ered a new opportunity at the Bogue Banks Public
Library,.the Book Nook, the perfect answer for your
summer reading, although by no means “fluff”
reading. All sorts of books and authors are pre
sented in the ever-changing selection of hardback
books for $3 each and trade paperbacks for $1.
The Book Nook idea came to members of the
Friends Board at a meeting several years ago and
has become a key support of library programs. The
books have been treated kindly by their owners and
are carefully inspected by our library staff before
being placed on the shelves.
Proceeds go to the many programs of the library,
especially important during these times of across-
the-board budget cuts. Drop by the library fre
quently to choose from this ever-changing selection
of good reading.
Dates to hold: The semi-annual Used Book Sale
Friday and Saturday, August 12-13, at Shepherd of
the Sea Lutheran Church, and the 30th anniversary
of the Bogue Banks Public Library on or about
September 27. Our library serves all residents of At
lantic Beach, Emerald Isle, and Pine Knoll Shores.

Dan Law Joins the
Shoreline St^
Byjacquie Pipkin
Dan moved to Pine Knoll Shores in 2006 with
, his new bride and “long-time friend and adven
ture buddy,” Teresa. A native of Pensacola, Flor
ida, Dan served
in the Navy for
35.5 years before
his retirement in
March 2010. After
two active duty
enlistments that
took Dan half way
around the world,
he joined the Navy
Civil Service in
1980 overhauling
rnilitary aircraft.
In 1994, as part
of the Base Realignment and Closure Commis
sion (BRAC), the Naval Air Rework Facility at
Naval Air Station in Pensacola, transferred one
of the main helicopters that Dan had been over
8^
A
hauling since 1981 to the Naval Air Depot at
the Marine Corps Air Station in Cherry Point.
Dan re-located to Atlantic Beach, where he lived
for twelve years prior to moving to Pine Knoll
Shores.
Dan has a son, Dan Jr. in Pensacola, a step
son, Justin, in Richmond, Virginia, three grand
children and three grand puppies. Dan enjoys
writing, fishing, sailing, carpentry/woodwork
ing, photography, gardening and being a good
neighbor. When
Teresa retires from
her position of Field
Projects Manager for
Wal-Mart, the Laws
plan to move aboard
a sailboat and live the
sailor’s lifestyle for as
many years as pos
sible, cruising the east
coast of the United
States and the islands
of the Caribbean.
At The Shore
line, Dans primary responsibility is the monthly
Geek’s Corner. However, he is always available to
take pictures and generously “volunteers” for any
other tasks that need doing.
