Labor Day Low Country Boil

Chow line
The marina (basically awesome Dock Mistress Sherry) threw a great Labor Day party with a Low Country Boil as the feature.
Par Tay
As two kids from Kansas, Low Country Boils are new to us.  Sausage, new potatoes, corn and shrimp.  Fresh, wild Georgia shrimp - YUM!
Dock Mistress Sherry - one kewl lady

We all brought side dishes.  YUM again. 
Leftover haul
There was tons of food and leftovers.  We aren't too proud so we gladly took home some leftover...boil.  I guess that is the right phrase, although that sounds weird.
After party joke and story telling
AND there were some give away prizes.  While we didn't win, a fellow cruiser won the fresh but leftover, unboiled shrimp - about 8 lbs.  She didn't want it all and offered up part of her prize to anyone that wanted fresh shrimp.  Again....we aren't too proud, so we took a pound or so for tomorrow night.  The other prizes were West Marine gift cards but none of the winners of those offered them up like the shrimp.  Darn!  We had a nice time visiting with various cruisers we know and meeting new people that we haven't met before.  People are starting to talk winter plans.  Good stuff.
