Well where did the year go? Seems like just yesterday we were doing that
thing: You know, that thing where we lay on the beach and drink margaritas
and dream happy thoughts. Oh wait! We can still do that! What a blessing
that we live where we do. With the weather maintaining (fingers crossed) its
mostly happy face, we have been able to skate right through November on sand
encrusted flip flops and surf right on into December with a sunburn. Love it!!
So, here we are! Christmas time: A time to gather, reflect, be thankful, spend
more than you should, stress out that Aunt Diedra from Wisconsin is coming to
visit and hates your partner and is allergic to your dogs, buy wrong presents,
lose your mind and in general, forget all about the joy of the season. Who am I
kidding? I am right in the mix people, so let’s pull up our big britches, paste on
our happy faces and get it on.
The good news is that I have help for you! December is a cluster and we
all know it. I am here to help with all of your problems! The cover features our
beloved advertisers and the feature story is all about what they can help you
with when it comes to presents and good times. Its Shop Local time and you do
not have to go to the mall for those presents when everything you need is right
here! Read on for further details …
This month’s Traveling Beachcomber winner was a struggle (as always).
Y’all are getting super fun and creative and traveling to the most exotic locales!
After an extended game of Rock, Paper, Scissors (professional all the way here
at the BC), it has been determined that our winner is our very own Main Street
Muser, Chantel Morton! Chantel went to the Redwoods in sunny Cal. That
is a tall tree right there! You know what they say about tall trees? Big shade!
Congratulations, Chantel! Off to A-J’s you go and as always, if you need a friend
to join you for A-J’s fantastic conch fritters and watermelon margaritas, call
ME!!
Don’t forget our Gandalf the Grey Beard Contest! For those who voted in
November, you have another chance to vote in December on when Mr. Brantley
Hackney is going to become human again! Email me your date and time for a
chance to win something fabulous!!
Merry Christmas everyone!! I hope your
holiday season is stress free
and full of good times! But
for now, before all madness
breaks loose, kick up your flip
flops, make me a cocktail and
get your read on! AND SHOP
LOCAL!!!
P.S. We take our giggles and
laugh out louds when and where
we can. This month’s giggle is
from Facebook who, in reviewing
the Tybee Beachcomber’s category
status as a Media/News Company,
has decided it would be best if changed our status to Media/Company – Bar. Why thank you the recommendation! I think TYBEE BEACHCOMBER | DEC 2017 3
