It was planned for Thursday evening – dinner – on the water – family night – and it did not disappoint!

We had rain checks for nine holes of golf at Crow Creek – golf course – so – we and the McBrides booked a tee time!
It was a beautiful day – however, the day before we had a downpour and so it was cart path only!
But – we made the most of it and we only played nine holes!
We had a 3:00 pm. tee time – perfect as we were almost the last tee time!
It was hot – but a breeze –
And we almost had the course to ourselves!
Playing cart path only – is tiring and I really do not like it!
But – – it was really wet and we would have gotten the cart stuck!
We finished around 5:30 pm. – loaded the cars and drove back to our home for dinner and drinks!

Our view here I shall always remember – in all we will be here for nine months!
I captured this shot as a flock of geese were coming right at me before
rising up over the lanai and roof.
We decided to build – that way we would have everything we wanted
A single story – no stairs – covered front porch – screened in covered lanai.
Close to the beach ( four miles) in the country!
Close to golfing ( over 20 courses near by)
And with in 6 1/2 hours to travel back home
or family to travel here!
We will have around 1900 sf. of heated space –
in addition to a 140 sf covered and screened in lanai
and a open 10 x 14 concrete patio.
There will be a covered front porch
and views of the neighborhood.
The back will be woods with no one building there
as it will be a conservation area.
We will be four miles to Ocean Isle Beach and six miles to Sunset Beach
A thirty minute drive back to North Myrtle Beach
and a fifthteen minute drive to Calabash
and a fifthteen minute drive to Shallotte.
All this in the middle of some twenty golf courses we will be playing!
But – all the inspections have been completed
and our contractor calls us every Monday to give updates
and answer any questions!
We drive over every Sunday – no one is working!
That way – if it is not raining – we can get out and look it over!
This will be our third house together building.
All three were unique and we have input on all of them.

We have rekindled our friendship of long – long ago – grade school and H.S. buddies.
Bob and I grew up together – playing sports – sleepovers and sleep outsides-
Countless adventures while growing up in a little town in North West Pa. called ELDRED!
Now – like Mayberry – everyone knew your name –
and like Stand by me – we had a group of friends –
it was just that way.
This place is in high demand – so mush so they built a brand new sitting area covered outside!
It is part of a group of restaurants – Clarks in Little River – and Oyster Rock also in Calabash.
Each one is hard to get into – reservations are the way EXCEPT-
Sherry walked in and found that the bar tables are first to come and first served!
Even though there were 20 plus people in line!
Just a hint on how to get seating – we did not know!
Boundry house is a destination to take friends – good food – good atmosphere and good company!

We decided this day would be shopping – a unique store in Calabash called Calahans.
This has been a store of destination for decades and decades.
“L” shaped and 100 feet long or more on each side!
There are thousands and thousands of items – beach – lawn – apparal and holidays – all of them!
It was fun – but I am a people watcher – not a shoper – I know what I want – and I am in and out!
But – Elaine and Steve had fun – I got to visit with a guy sitting on a bench –
and Sherry got to look some more at what she has looked at at least six times! LOL
I told them this is where the locals go and hang out.
There is even a biker bar there!
But our favorite is called “PATIO’S” and sits on the water – has live music –
and good food!
We have a VIEW of the water and boat traffic – plus this is where they dock the two large Casino boats.
It was incredible to watch as it from end to end – you would swear it could touch both shores!
It loads up here – ticket office right there and there were hundreds of people on it!
It goes out to the ocean to the international border line – and then they anchor and they gamble!
We decided to stay – order dinner – I HAD A SALAD –
and listen to the band play ’70’s and ’80’s music!
The food was good and so was the music!
Who keeps me on track and healthy after my heart attack almost 8 years ago.

We had planed this little get together for some time now.
They had been in Florida for the winter in their RV.
Moving around down there and then working their way back North.
They were in a campground eight miles from the condo’
So for three whole days – we gave them a tour – but the first day was Mother’s Day.
Then it was for a very quick walk on the beach where they were camping!
It was so WINDY – we took this picture and headed back to the campsite.
Here – we are at Oyster Rock on the ICW in Calabash N.C. where we had reservations for dinner.
At Oyster Rock in Calabash N.C. on the ICW!

John and Nancy live in Charleston S.C
a little over two hours away.
We have known them for years as we all were members
of Community Lutheran Church back in Sterling Va.
They moved about six months before we did
and we visited them a year ago on our return trip from Florida.
A couple months ago – we had met half way for lunch
in Georgetown S.C.
This time – we played cards – put a puzzle together – played Rummikub
and took a walk on the beach!
It was a delighful day and night and following day
With lunch in Calabash
and a trip to see our house being built!

Good day everyone!
We have been furniture hunting – the whole house – as we have almost nothing!
We sold it all – 98 % of it – to the folks who bought our home!
While it has been somewhat stressful for my wife –
and me being the one who does not like to shop-
I AM LOVING THIS!
Yes – that is right! When we usually go shopping – I tend to find a place –
and sit and watch people!
Maybe with a cup of coffee or a bottle of water.
I find people interesting.
You can almost tell who they are by just observing!
So – here I am – looking at furniture – and I actually like doing this!
That is completely out of norm for me.
And has turned very stressful for my wife.
But -as of this writing with hoping 3 1/2 months to go to closing
The middle of May – I can say we have now completed 95 % of what we need!
We have one sun room to finish and some end tables!
We have ended up buying from three different stores –
with what will be three different deliveries!
And I still have to get our items we have in storage delivered to N.C.!
But – we were able to hand carry three items back to the car and then back to the Condo – in Ocean Keyes!
Our theme is going to be somewhat beach like –
since we will be only four miles to Ocean Isle Beach and six miles to Sunset Beach!
All in N.C. between Calabash and Shallotte.
We contacted the three little ones and they – ( CASSIDY) came up with the name for the Pelican.
You see – there was a smaller version already in the condo-
and I had told them I named it RALPH! LOL
They thought that to be funny!

When we were firs married – we went to the beach in the Outer Banks.
Our goal each year was to take the kids to the beach for vacation.
I always dreamed of one day – to somehow work close to the beach –
I would always say ” I am going to sell hot dogs on the beach – just so I could be there”!
Today – everyday where we are –
we are living that dream.
We sold our home back in NVA.
Along with most furniture
and are renting a condo in Ocean Keyes – North Myrtle Beach S.C.
And we walk 1/2 mile through the gated community – to the beach!
Anything in the Sun – mid 40’s to mid 50’s and no wind – I am for it!
But – snow – wind – ice (slip and fall) I am out of there!
So – we pulled the trigger – after we said to ourselves – we do not want to renovate at our age.
We want to live our remaining lives while we can –
playing golf – exploring and walking the beaches!
We made our selections before Thanksgiving – the paper work was done –
The deposit made – banking finalized –
And when we returned from NVA –
We went to the lot –
THE FORMS WERE IN TO POUR THE FOUNDATION!
Our dream is about to take place.
We have found our shopping stores – and are exploring the area –
Golfing is everywhere and the beach is four miles away!
We are on the mainland and cross the ICW to get to the beach.
Now – we will wait to get a close date-
we have to buy furniture and move from storage what we have left.
Our dream is about to become a reality – walking the beach – warm weather –
Thank you for reading Papa’s World –
our 2020 has been stressful with the Pandemic
our lives are changed and social distancing the norm.
But – our dream continues on –

We have now golfed our second course since we moved to S.C.
We had a chance to grab tee times at this sought after course.
The whole theme is of Scotland
with the club house and grounds
and the road onto and into the course.
This part of N.C. close to the ocean is rather flat
but they molded this course into bunkers
with six tee boxes on each hole!
I was impressed at just how much they changed the landscape.
Plus – there is a lot of water hazards here!
And something you do not see in Scotland – GATORS!
This big one was sunning itself on the back side
of a raised green – and from the fairway
you could not see it!
Good thing no had hit long
because as I walked back to line up my putt
there it was!
Sherry and Cindy also saw another one when then went to find a ball
next to a water hazard
and carefully got out of there!
It was a great course – and because of the tees we played
we avoided a lot of water where they were!
We always have fun golfing with Cindy and Buck
now that we are down here – they live about 40 minutes away
so we make tee times to play
this being the fourth time we have played together
since we came down late September and stayed with them for 5 days!
