About every other month, St. Jude's Episcopal Church has a social gathering. Since it's always on Fridays, they call it "Good Fridays" (you know, after the Easter Prequel thing). Mostly it's at one or another Parishioner's home in or about The Boro, but last night we loaded up our vehicles and traveled to nearby
Yemassee to Harold's Country Club. Yemassee has some history, of note, including its role as the former train-stop for Marine recruits heading for Parris Island and for the tribe of Native Americans after whom the town was named (As I understand it, British settlers killed every last one of the Yemassee tribe, leaving only the name behind). Harold's is a restaurant that used to be a auto mechanic's shop and gas stop. Currently, Harold's is about the only thing going in Yemassee, but it's enough. Shoot, look at the stuff offered at Harold's:
Fishing lures.
Pickled pig's feet.
Pool.
Smokes.
Dancing.
and, yes, you can even get a steak (but only on steak night. Usually, that's Saturday, but they made an exception for us).

Now that's what I call a one-stop shop!
PS: Did you really eat that "meat?"
Harold's is eclectic, all right. And, yes, Star, I did eat the meat. I'm back on task, though. Lean meat and lots of veggies.
Great Job showcasing one of the Lowcountry's finest establishments......
Great Fun ... Great Friends
It was fun, Gale. Hope you, Diane, and the girls have fun Wednesday, too.
