MURRELLS INLET, SC: Thursday and Friday


 


The park has added some cute over=sized Adirondack chairs - a perfect spot for a group picture.







Thursday was another good day without special activities.  The group gathered around 5:30 PM for a shrimp boil.

We set up some Coleman stoves and big pots..
..and threw in ears of corn, chunks of potato,
sausage, and fresh shrimp that Howard picked up right off the boat!

 Everyone was getting their fill of this great feast!



Nothing was left but the 'bones'..

They even made a shrimpless bowl for Selene and one other person.  We had leftover desserts from Wednesday's dinner.  Of course, another campfire gathering followed enjoying each other's company.



Saturday was a partly cloudy day with temperatures in the high 70's and higher humidity.  Late morning, we headed off to the post office and to get a few groceries, but also ate lunch at .Drunken Jack's.  Hank had Shrimp Creole and Catfish with salad bar, and Selene had a huge grilled chicken, ham, bacon and Provolone sandwich with steamed vegetables and salad bar.  Tonight the group had a pot luck with many delicious items, and the usual campfire.  Rain is expected overnight.

Yesterday, the carpet cleaner finished his work.  Today, the house cleaning crew took care of their work.  The landscaper was rained out today, but hopefully will come over the weekend.  The 'to-do' list is getting shorter!
