We arrived there on Thursday afternoon after a seven plus hour drive from Birmingham. Unfortunately, most of our drive was in torrential rain along the way as well as in St. Simons. (everytime that I write "St. Simons I think that the "s" at the end should have an apostrophe before it....however, the name is actually "Simons" with the "s") : )
Thursday night was a "pre-party" at my friend's lovely home right on the marsh. By the time that we got there, the rain had lightened and then actually let up for a bit....so the indoor/outdoor party was not adversely affected. Two gentlemen were roasting oysters (yum!) in the backyard for the guests...and Dave and I spent a good deal of time back there enjoying this delicacy. Inside were raw oysters on the half shell, shrimp, chicken strips, and assorted other munchies for all to enjoy. The bar was a popular spot as drinks of all types were being downed and people were meeting and greeting and old friends were getting reacquainted.
It was a great beginning to a lovely weekend...
