Well we made it into town and what a time we had. Jim and I
went in the early am to check out this little town which is clean, well
maintained and very charming. Starting with the city docks that line the
waterfront and accentuated by the little restaurants on Front street with their
white linen tablecloths.
We found out that one of the agricultural crops in
Georgetown was Rice! I had no idea, but once this fact was known, it was a no
brainer, with all the low lying water filled fields around here, what better
crop to grow?

It is Jeff's birthday tomorrow, so we decided to go
celebrate with a dinner out and a few drinks. We chose the Buzz's Roost
Restaurant which was so close to the boat we could have swam there.
and then took
ourselves outside or game of Euchre. Yes of course it was the team of Jeff and
Mimi who dominated, but no corny pictures of it today!
On our way out the door,
Jeff decided a game of Jenga was in order, which Susan expertly won. We did not
play anymore games as we were eaten alive by the no-see-um.
On our walk back to
the dinghy we passed another bar with pool tables, so another stop was in
order. This time it was Jim and me vs Susan and Jeff. Turns out Jeff is pretty
good. Jim normally is also pretty good at this game, but alcohol was involved!
If you don't believe me, check out the picture of Jim hugging some random guy
at the bar! He looks a lot like Ian, my brother-in-law and I think Jim was just
missing him... OK the true story is that when Susan went off to the bathroom,
this gentleman just grabbed her and gave her a hug and a kiss on the
forehead. This gentleman apparently had way too much to drink. Jeff was quite taken aback by this,
but rather than start a fight, he chose to just go up to the guy and get his
own hug. Jim followed suite and they confused this guy royally. I think he
thought he was on some episode of "Just for laughs" or "Candid Camera".
All is well
that ends well and I must say, this will go down as one of our most memorable
nights on this trip. We had tons of laughs and I just totally forgot about my
back.
Tomorrow we are off to Myrtle beach, so good night all.
Thanks for the recap and the laughs. Some of the evening is a little foggy this morning! Jeff M/V Gran Vida
