In addition to just loving the hell out of being at the
beach there is something extra special about the place we stay, other than the marvelous Peggy who runs the place! There is everything you could need within
walking distance. And I do not mean the
typical beach town “touristy” crap. Just
very small Mom & Pop independently owned small shops and restaurants. I have not noticed one chain store within a
mile of us either way. It is
magnificent! The local 7-11-“ish” is not air conditioned, carries only the essentials that means 50% is
dedicated to beer and wine, is less than ½ block away (no-gas) and is no bigger than an 8’
x 10’ bedroom. The owner and whoever is there hangs out just outside the door
in beach chairs chatting about what was caught down at the pier yesterday or
whatever else comes up as long as it is not politics! Next door is “Beach Belly Bob’s” a
breakfast/lunch kitchen, not enough room for tables and chairs inside, unless
you want to sit in one of the 3 stools at the counter, otherwise you sit outdoors under his tarp that he added
this past year. And yes...the only employee
is indeed Beach Belly Bob himself, the name is appropriate. And
then there is the “fancy” restaurant, that means there is a full bar and menus!
You can sit inside in the AC…but my question is why the hell you would? Everything tastes better outside on the beach
with a beer! The characters and the “flavors”
here are spectacular!
