CHARTING NEW TERRITORY

Towards the end of June, Grandpa & Grandma Ellsworth came to town. We decided to head to Hilton Head and Savannah. My brother, Dan, and I have wanted to take my mom to Savannah ever since we, ourselves, visited that lovely southern city (did you know that it did NOT get burned in Sherman's march to the sea?).

Since we would be so close to Hilton Head, we swung by the beach. It's shameful, but we had never been to Hilton Head. At least, the children and I hadn't. It was wonderful!

It was a quick trip...In 36 hours we:
Went to the beach
Shopped
Went to dinner
Swam in the resort pool
Toured Savannah
Ate at 5 guys
Ate Blizzards
Drove to and Fro
and caught a some shut eye.


This was funny. My nephew, Jared aka Birthday boy, had Crawfish for dinner and provided our entertainment. The waiter said he'd worked there 3 summers and never seen that done.
