We’ve been here in Carolina Beach for a few days. It’s been hot as hell here so we decided to go to a matinee at the local movie house. We didn’t really care what we saw, we just wanted some AC, after tying up the dinghy it was about a half mile walk with the temperature in the high nineties.

We were a half hour early so we were sitting in the theater watching the tripe that played before the movie. Evidently we’ve been gone along time. We were watching a movie trailer for a couple of minutes before we realized that it was just a cell phone commercial. It was even directed by Spike Lee for Christ’s sake. Ridiculous. Anyway, the movie was okay, the AC was great.

We’ve spent every evening hanging out with Mary & Gary from Packet Inn. Last night Art and Ellie from Meermin drove down to go out to dinner with us. The Meermins live 20 miles north of here so after a short drive we all enjoyed our reunion at a local seafood place.
