Uncle Gator's Kiawah Adventures

At times 6 really has to wonder if the world is not just passing me by, and the worst think is 6 just thinks he may not even care. The other night 6 was sitting comfortably on his fine lounge chair, listing to a summer storm , watching black and white TV shows. Soon 6 was transported to a similar summer eve in North Carolina. Andy and Barn were relaxing on the front porch watching Opie catching a baseball, while Aunt Bee was getting the apple pie topped with a dollop of ice cream. Yes there ware problems back them, 6 is sure that Otis was getting a snoot full, and Ernest T was running thru the town throwing rock thru window, but things were simpler back then. Life was centered on Family, religion, and finally achieving the American dream.. in other words Baseball, hot dogs and apple pie. Today things are centered on Individuals, Political correctness, and tech. in other words cell phones, trans fat and designer coffee.   Lets us take a look at the beach then and now.. The ...

If you remember from last week in the Kiawah news there were two articles that I did not go into any detail on I was just saving them for this week… It all started out on Monday afternoon, 6 did not perform his usual stellar job protecting the real estate around us, thus allowing four or five teenage girls (71 believed them to be a little older she noticed them vabeing , she concluded that at least they were 18, minors do not drink either ) spread their towels,   ran like the wind,   past lake Bundy and went off in to the wild blue ocean. (BTW 6 will not mention the shark attacks in NC). It was about this time that 4 decided she needed an ice tea refill, so back to the condo she headed. Note to self..Countless, innumerous, multitudinous     trips were made all because 7 would not pack a cooler.   Let’s see…7 flew southwest free baggage? Or was it he had no room? None of the above, for he had ample space to return home with a nice orange towel, that the ...

Kiawah in the spring! Oh the beach time! The sky was as blue as topaz, the vegetation as green as Tsavorite garnet the air as clear as a multi-faceted diamond. The sun unabated sat low in the sky not allowing for the harsh burning piercing rays that turn the sand into hot coals, and your skin into a burning mass… In other words you suckers missed a great week! As all of you know 6 is on constant look out for news from the islands. In my research I found three interesting articles: first was titled “The Bundy’s head south for vacation” , and second” 4 gets a Girl Friend”, and third “The return of the turtle killers”. In my past posts, you-all remember the turtle killers, if not go no further with this post, and go back and edamacate yourselves! For those who imagine themselves to have the same intellectual ability as myself read on! When 6 arrived at the beach on Saturday night, his keen intellect noticed that there was something different on the beach. Upon exiting the boa...
