February 13, 2011--She's Heeeere!

Well, the old Nag arrived last night at 6:30 pm. That's why I'm blogging. She "asked" me to. Again and again and again. She might do some blogging too. Sunny and 60 degrees. Very nice. We started out at 7:30 (I know, but we're on vaca) with a walk on the beach. It was about 40 then; very invigorating. We then had the traditional fry-up and then my first nap of the day.

We had lunch at the Waterfront Restaurant, which by the way is not on the waterfront. It's a keeper, I think. They had a buffet, but we eschewed it (my word of the day). I had soup and sandwich, and a whole sandwich at that, for only $8.59. The soup was turkey and noodles with real turkey! Then a low country BLT with really good B. Peg had a crabcake sandwich which she raved about. We'll take the Flatlanders here.

The we went to Botany Bay Plantation, no fee, which i found surprising. It was an old rice and cotton Plantations (two joined together now. Above are a couple of pics. There are some walks and we will go back.

So we got back home about 2pm, and my second nap of day. After that we had been planning to go bike riding. There are bikes under the house and we go down to take them out...flat tires on the two best. So we look around for a pump and find an electrical one, but it had no plug on it, just some wires sticking out. Peg said "Dick could fix that." So there are two other usable bikes but the seats need adjustment before we could ride them. So we scour the place for a wrench. We find a tool box. Locked. So Peg says "Don't you have tools in the car?" No. "Dick would have a tool box." Great, Peg. He probably changes his own oil, and does the timing on his spark plugs, too. Can't wait for him to get here.

That's that. First thing tomorrow I had to the True Value for a wrench. Maybe Dick will show me how to use it when he gets here.
