Myrtle Beach, South Carolina - October 16 - 17, 2015
October 16, 2015
The drive to Myrtle Beach was
pleasant and uneventful. We were
grateful for having the rest of the day open.
It was time to “clean house”. We
have a routine worked out, where Bev does the bathrooms, kitchen and dusting
and Stan does the floors. It works out
great and we get it done in a couple of hours.
Stan vacuumed up 10 pounds of cat hair – not really, but it seemed like
it - yikes.
Every time the wind blows, tiny
acorns drop on the top of the rig. The
pop-pop-pop sound is pretty cool.
Tonight was the first time we
have been able to eat in the rig in a long time, so it was nice. Stan grilled pork chops. Yum

We are on our own until dinner
today. Wow – we hardly know what to do.
Stan got an opportunity for a
little extra shuteye, and Bev got to work on the blog. We were both happy.
After a shower and a couple cups
of coffee we decided to head out to Myrtle Beach (since we are staying in North
Myrtle Beach, it was about a 15 mile drive).
We had a nice breakfast/lunch then walked across the road to the
Boardwalk. It was a beautiful day, so
there were people on the beach, even some swimming. Hard to believe in mid-October! Myrtle Beach is very much a tourist town,
with shops and restaurants all over the place.
We were told that there are about 30,000 residents in the area, but it
grows to 300,000 in the high season.
At 5:00 p.m. we all drove to
Preston’s Seafood and Country Buffet for dinner. The food was fabulous, and as usual, we ate
too much. Thank goodness, we missed the
salad bar, or we would have filled up on that before we got to all the great
seafood. Stan especially loved the
steamed clams.
After dinner, we drove a few
blocks to the Alabama Theater Show.
There was the tribute to the Drifters, Coasters, & the
Platters. Wow, the music was so
good. The show started at 7:00 p.m. and
didn’t get finished until 10:30 p.m.
Each group performed with an intermission in between.
