"Yes, there were some big ass garr. I also remember being moored at site IV & watching the gators swing across the Cooper River. There were gators & fish trapped in the superstructures of those old "S" boats all the time."

"I got on the Holland in Charleston, SC, when she was in dry dock. Kinda made me a bit nervous reporting to a ship that couldn't float."

DELMARVA Bike week sucks! things are to spread out. Wildwood NJ is a whole lot better (weekend of sept 12). I'm going to Ohio labor day weekend for the easy rider rodeo, hell of a good time. Delaware is pretty good, you can get to a bunch of places in less than 2 hrs. Where I live I can be in MD, NJ, or PA is about 15 min. Work sucks but it plays the bills. I will be in TX the weekend before xmas for a wedding
