Oyster Roast Report & forthcoming
The Oyster Roast was a lot of fun. Folk from the SC Midlands as well as the upstate, NC & GA gathered to devour a bushel of oysters as well as spaghetti (whole wheat) and Alfredo sauce, steamed broccoli and asparagus, salad, brownies, pound cake, turtle tracks ice cream and a cadre of snacks. The hot tub alas, did not melt away the calories.
