The moon really has been lovely these past few nights, hasn't it?  We were downstairs watching TV tonight and our daughter called to tell us to get off our duffs and walk outside and look at the moon.  I can only imagine what it looked like at the beach, if it managed to look spectacular in the Midwest!

Darnit! I forgot to invite the Otters. I am certain you were in capable hands at Borago. I am guessing that either Em, Matt, or Christen took great care of you. 

Oh the twakilya or however you say that and the food were awesome. I am looking at the empty bottle of sipping twatkdillaa and wondering who drank it all. :idontno: All I provided was the stove and A/C. I will take that any day, even though I love to cook up some fancy food. Although there is nothing like having our own celebrity Chef visit for for a few nights to make it even better. Glad to see you were able to crawl home Kurt. :D

Nope.   Graytonbound and I could not decide between the two.  SJ said Borago was fancy so we opted for Pandora's.  But talked about both lots.  For some reason when we got back home.... oops Froydian slip ;-) ... to the beach house I typed Borago instead.  Pandoras is awesome.  The wood fired flavor was to die for :cool:

WE LOVE PANDORAS!!! we visit every year :wub:

[QUOTE=seagrovelover]WE LOVE PANDORAS!!! we visit every year :wub:[/QUOTE]
 
I have this silly rule about only eating seafood while I'm at the beach.  I seem to be getting there more and more any maybe it's time to relax that rule.  Next time I go to Pandora's I will have the steak.  Everybody says that's the way to go but I'm telling you that Grouper was amazing :cool:

[QUOTE]SJ said Borago was fancy [/QUOTE] 

I don't think so - we all were dressed "resort casual"  when we went last month - nice shorts and shirts/tops - and fit right in. 

I do want to try Pandora's next time we're there in October.

We were dressed fine but had the LittleOtters with us.  Of course we have taken them to Cafe 30A a couple of times.... armed with Gameboys though ;-)

Yes, compared to Goatfeathers, but everything down here is resort casual or tee shirt casual if you are with me.

How neat is that!  Looks like a great evening

at Grayton :cool: Wow! what a magical place that is. Nobody there either. I drove thru at sunset and there were several people out watching that. Went to dinner at Pandoras which was one of the best dinners I have ever had :cool: and then went to moonrise. There were maybe 10 people on the whole beach then it was just the 4 of us. Wow..
