we have some pretty awesome friends. friends that invited us out on their boat for a nice cruise to wherever we wanted to go. we all decided that since there was a chance of spotty thunderstorms (that is always the norm down here in the summer), we should stick fairly close instead of heading to savannah. so, we decided that daufuskie island was a good choice. nice place to eat and explore a bit.
the boys bellied up to the bar.
the kids kept themselves busy
he looks good as a farmer, doesn't he?
and i'm pretty sure this is as close as she will ever get to a bull in her life!
as you can see...the clouds rolled in. we rented golf carts and cruised all over the island for a few hours, hoping the clouds and waves would die down.
this looks super calm, because it was, for a while.
but, at this beach (the second one we visited), the waves started getting bigger and the sand was blowing so hard, it was stinging our legs.
this is what you get for trying to do donuts in the sand 😂
after our time was up on the golf carts, we headed toward the docks. needless to say, i have no pictures of this part of the trip because it was a "hold on for dear life and don't dare take out your camera" kind of ride back to HHI. we actually almost lost the boat before we got on because one of the lines had snapped from the waves throwing the boat all around and the other one was coming loose. we got completely soaked from the water coming up over the bow and it was an interesting ride back, to say the least.
once we were back on land, it was kind of funny. kind of. but, i'm pretty sure we are all going to be talking about that ride for a while. as roman said that night..."that was fun, but only because we didn't die".
we took this pic when we got back because not one of us had a dry spot on us and we were all ready to go home for a hot shower.
we look great, huh?
