Day 22 Odds and Ends

Not much to report the past few days. Things have been mostly uneventful. There wasn't much sun today which, I suppose was good, since I was beginning to get sunburned...why am I smiling as I write this? Like I said, not much happening here, so just a few thoughts about the few things we have been doing. Obviously we've spent some time at the Red Bar and Shorty's. The good news is that we're now considered "locals" since both places are charging us local prices for drinks which are significantly different than tourist prices. We've also been to the Hurricane Oyster Bar and Grill several times and had delicious oysters. For their happy hour you get a dozen oysters for five dollars and a beer for a dollar. Imagine, a dozen great oysters, four beers, and you get change back from a ten dollar bill. Another place right next to the Hurricane is the Pickle Factory, which is a pizza, beer, and wine bar that an older guy from Chicago/New York/Thailand opened a couple of months ago. He makes one of the best thinnest and lightest crusted pizzas I've ever had and since it's a small place and is mostly empty, he's been kinda trying to teach me how to duplicate it...I don't think I can, but I WILL try. He enjoys us stopping by and chatting.
