Hilton Head Island, SC – Day 7 of 8

July 31, 2010 – 9:51 pm

Today was soo relaxing. We slept in late and headed back to Skull Creek Boathouse for brunch. It, again, was fantastic and I forgot to take pictures. I had “drop doughnuts” which looked like giant hushpuppies rolled in sugar. It came with eight doughnuts but I quickly bartered two of them away for a piece of Kara’s cinnamon vanilla French toast and one of them for one of my mom’s egg and ham biscuits. Pam also donated half of a bagel with cream cheese to my cause. All-in-all, my $4.00 doughnuts turned into a veritable buffet. Yum!

Rating: 5/5

After brunch we traipsed down to the beach. The waves today were ridiculously choppy. I saw several fish jumping and Kara was whacked in the hand by what she assumes was a fish. After about an hour, we both were exhausted from staying afloat so we went to the pool. It was much more relaxing.

Then we headed back to the condo where the nap fairy visited my mom while the rest of us read for awhile.

I have a really bad habit of watching the Food Network when I’m not hungry and within 30 minutes, you can almost guarantee I’ve got dinner planned…

So we chose One Hot Mama’s. It’s another of the Serg Restaurant Group’s holdings. Giuseppi’s and Skull Creek Boathouse both got 5/5s, so I figured we couldn’t go wrong. And I was right.

Southern Style Ribs

Pulled Pork Sandwich

The ribs were great (5/5), but I’m only going to give the meal a 4/5 because the sides could have been better.

We get no cell service in the condo, so as we pulled up to the building I was updating the apps on my phone. They didn’t quite finish so I figured I’d go to the lake behind the condo to let it finish before I went into the dead zone. Here’s the sign I found.
