Paladin 3,305 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Anyone have plans, away from football, for the bye week? I'll be venturing over to Hilton Head. Never have been, but going later this week for a few days of rest and relaxation. Since I gave up golf a few years ago, probably spend most of our time on the beach or lounging around the pool. Will also tour the island on bikes. Does anyone have any restaurant recommendations? Any other activities there which would be fun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodford 3,678 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Watching the Braves on Saturday sprinkled with CFB before and maybe after. Probably smoking some ribs. Good weekend to turn 33 😂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The appeal to me was that they have a great gluten free option menu and actually serve it in a different color plate. Five of us with two needing GF it was the best option and it didn't disappoint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good weekend to turn 33 😂 Happy Birthday. I just got a smoker so I'll be trying it for the first time. Looking forward to it. Doing some pressure washing around the house but will squeeze in some CF and Braves as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like to celebrate anymore because heck I'm a grown man and have other things to do but if the family want to do it then why not. I love pressure washing. I did out walkway and sidewalk last year. I need to get one of those cleaner add-ons for the wooden porch. I don't trust pressure washing 100+ year old wood lol Praying the bats stay awake and we don't get a repeat of last year. I think if the offense shows up no one else really has a chance. They just smack the ball. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a 50% chance we retire there or at least buy a place there when we retire. Lots of good restaurants. A few of our favorites: Pizza - Giuseppi's Burgers - Charbar Seafood - Skull Creek and Hudson's - Both big tourist places, but still good food. SC doesn't take reservations unless staying on a Marriott property, so get there early and/or be prepared to wait. I'm sure there are some great "locals" places there we aren't familiar with, I'd ask around. We went to a locals place once for seafood but it's been several years, I don't remember the name of it. With the locals places, the food won't necessarily be any better, just less touristy and probably a little less expensive. HHI isn't that big though, probably difficult to keep a locals place non-touristy. Breakfast - Stacks and Hilton Head Diner None of these places are exactly hidden gems, but they are all good and are our favorites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday is a holiday here (until PC gets it, which won’t be much longer.) Going to try to keep an eye on Bama/TAMU game and the baseball playoffs (in spite of the fact the Yankees offseason is already underway - still, like college football, I enjoy MLB enough to follow even when my team is out of it). But for a change, sports won’t the the focus of my fall weekend (much to my wife’s joy). 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddc 13,194 Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Attending the Old Time Fiddler’s Convention in Athens Al where I live. It’s the biggest event in our fair city every year. If you’re ever in the area in early October you have to check it out. You don’t need to be a bluegrass fan to enjoy it. Tons of crafts and great food. Yee haw 🤠 Or I might just go fishing and stay away from the crowds. 😝 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
