Hi, just returned from a wonderful sun-soaked week in NC at the Oak  
Island beaches.    I received several suggestions from other listmates  
for GF resources which I'll include below.  Although we planned to go  
out to eat, at the recommended places,  we decided to eat in all week  
because the  local grocery store, Lowe's, had a good supply of GF  
foods for our needs.   We also found a health food store in Southport  
that carried a few good items.  To summarize:

Lowe's grocery store (on right hand side Long Beach Road before going  
onto the island):  Great supply
	of GF items which were stocked in the same aisle as the like regular  
food.  You can go online
	and see their selection, as well as order your groceries online so  
they are ready for bagged and
	ready for pickup when you arrive at the store.  <http://www.lowesfoods.com 
 >

On the island there is a restaurant on the Ocean Crest Pier, Island  
Way Restaurant and Bar, that sits
	on the beach with a great view of the ocean.  Although we didn't eat  
there, we had a great
	conversation with the staff and manager and they are very aware of  
gluten-free needs and
	how to provide for them.  I'd feel very comfortable eating there and  
the locals highly recommended
	their food.  Ph. # 910-278-7770

There is a restaurant in downtown Southport (about 20 min away) called  
The Pharmacy that was recommended
	by two people.  <http://www.southporttimes.com/pharmacy.html> for  
phone number and directions.  It
	was suggested to call ahead and make reservations, as well as to make  
them aware of GF needs.
	
Live Oak Nutrition is a health food store in Southport on 114 E. Nash  
Street that carries a few GF items, including
	Kinnikinnick donuts and pizza crusts, George's English muffins, and  
bags of nuts/snacks that do not have
	any peanuts listed on their ingredients.  This was real find for us  
since I'm allergic to peanuts.
	Ph # 910-457-0550.

For nearby Myrtle Beach, a restaurant called Collector's Cafe was  
recommended.  No GF menu but they were
  	able to accommodate for GF needs.  <http://www.collectorscafeandgallery.com/

Thanks for all the help!
