Wah - Wah - Wah!

Well September has come and gone hasn't it?  We certainly didn't make our September trip timeline with the Airstream (and working on the A/C has been replaced with working on the heater as Fall sets in) - but we did have a GREAT time at the Shrimp n' Grits festival in Jekyll Island even without the Airstream (luckily our friends have a pop-up camper - worked out just great!)
Friday night Eric and I headed down there early for the $3 sample night!  Heck yea!  $3 samples of shrimp and grits!  We were both full for $18 and it was byob - combined with camping - this was a GREAT vacation idea (cheap!)

 Some cool boats piled up

 And the awesome bar
Saturday we went back to the festival to see the sights, eat more (not as cheap) Shrimp n Grits and browse the craft tents.  It was very fun.

(All of us out on the docks Saturday)

Saturday evening we went for a bike ride and ended up over on Driftwood Beach for sunset - GORGEOUS!

 Even picturesque shrimp boats out...

 We took full advantage of the gorgeous night and perfect sunset and wore our cameras out.

Of course Eric had to pull some shananigans...

and we took full advantage - ha ha ha!

Finally we headed out to dinner, which involved some more byob - and oysters (and Clemson football).  All in all it was a GREAT weekend! (as witnessed by Eric's gigantic grin!)
Lots more fun stuff going on and upcoming - I'll try to be better about posting!
TTFN
