Food and a Walk, with John and Otis

  The Shrimp Shack     This was an unplanned, just get in the car and go for a special occasion trip. We started our morning with a walk at Hunting Island State Park, which you can see and read about below, then we hit the Shrimp Shack. This is a location I have wanted to stop at for awhile, but often when I pass by it isn't open or it is just too busy for me.

We did our walk first, which can be found below and then headed over to the Seacow Eatery. I had already picked out what we were having for lunch, found their menu here: The Sea Cow Eatery . A Ruben sounded good and I haven't had one in awhile and it would be Otis's first time trying corned beef.     We got to the Seacow around 12 and were lucky to find one open space in the parking lot. There are not a lot of places to eat on Edisto Beach, if you go especially at the peak tourist times of the year expect them to be busy. For the amount of people there, the order came out quickly and we headed back to the State Park to eat at the picnic area. Then it was to digging in. For a side we got the beer battered...
