FISHING

On July 12th twelve fisher people went on a charter boat trip to Pelican Flats. All had a good time and said the captain worked hard to help find Red Snapper. Among them they caught about 2/3 of their allotment plus other things. One member returned to the same location on July 14th and caught his limit of Red Snappers!

MYRTLE BEACH TRIP RECAP

APRIL 8-12, 2019 • An AMAZING Trip!

We had a wonderful visit to Myrtle Beach! Where did the days go? We traveled with the nicest group of people; everyone was so happy, polite, helpful and courteous … we all made a lot of new friends!

Our bus driver was adorable, everyone wanted to adopt him and take him home! Diamond Tours are fantastic trips, so organized, things just fl ow so smoothly. Our itinerary
included a visit to a working farm, museums, quaint shopping areas, gift shops and restaurants. And of course great shows; we saw some fantastic entertainment, a magic show and maybe best of all comedy. We didn’t have to drive to places we are not familiar with, we didn’t have to fight city traffic. Our stops were planned and there was always someone there to greet us and tell us where to go. We had the comfort and security of knowing people were watching out for each other yet respecting our independence. So many of us are widows or widowers and don’t like to travel alone, we have the solution! Join us next time, forget about those aches and pains, they will still be there when you return but you will have had an amazing experience for a few wonderful days.
