We were up so we could say good bye to Brooke and Darren before they left for work. Brooke leaves at 6:45 am and Darren only has a couple of miles to go but still has to leave early to get Harper to the doggie day care. We got packed up and was on the road at 9:00 am heading to Akin SC to spend time with friends Mike and Mary who moved from Florida last December. We have missed the fun times and all the laughs we had together. We arrived at their place a little past noon. After a tour of the house and Mike’s wood working shop we headed downtown for some lunch. Then some shopping on the old main street of town. Our shopping didn’t last all that long as it started to rain. So Mike drove us around to see some of the old part of town. The big attraction here is polo horses. There is several Polo fields, horse tracks, and steeple chase tracks. Saw a lot of old large mansions with their stables plus a lot of the streets aren’t paved so they can travel them with their horses. When we got back to Mike and Mary’s they showed all the different things they have done since they moved here, they have been very busy and everything looks so nice. Later Mike and I made a trip to Lowe’s to pick up some mulch to put around some planting boxes he has made for some gardening. We took his 1949 Chevy sedan delivery which he has been working on for many years and just got it on the road a couple of months ago. Around 7:30 pm we went out for ice cream and then back to watch Dancing with the Stars. Mike made some clam dip to have with chips while watching TV. It was another fun day with family and friends.
