Happy May Y’all!
With the weather keeping us on our toes and looking at one of the busiest years
I have seen in my tenure here, I offer some words of advice: Dress in layers,
brake at the pedestrian crosswalks (I have seen and done some things! YIKES),
be kind and don’t forget your sunscreen! Last but not least, leave nothing but
your footprints!
That being barfed out, let’s get down to the dirty. The Easter Egg Hunt was as
usual super entertaining. The answer to the most frequently asked question is
Yes. There is an Easter Egg on Chief Bryson’s shirt insignia. I’m telling y’all, Rick
is getting cleverer as we go! The winner of the 2018 Easter Egg Hunt is Heather
Sheffield and she will be receiving a $50 gift certificate from Latitude 32 for all
of her hard work!!!!! Thank you and all the other entrants for being super bored
and submitting your entry!!!
Now, on to the Tybee Signature Cocktail Contest. I would first like to give
kudos to Stephen Palmer of Stephen Palmer Weddings for coming up with this
brilliant idea! Not only can he get you married, he is a super smart guy and
thinks of fun things to do! This particular contest is brilliant and I am thrilled to
announce the winner is Spanky’s Beachside!!! Their drink is the Beachside
Peach and is made with peach vodka, splashes of pineapple, cranberry and
lime juice. Shake it all about and top with ginger ale! Voila!! If you are lacking
peach vodka, substitute straight voddy with peach schnapps! It is absolutely
delish and I now officially proclaim and announce that Spanky’s Beachside is
the official maker of the 2018 Tybee Island Signature Cocktail!!! A plaque will
be delivered to them proclaiming said announcement forthwith (i.e., when Rick
gets it done – so eventually!!). Thank you to everyone who participated! It really
was a close call and I actually had to do work to count the votes!
May is the best month to be alive! Beach Bum is finally here so let the good
times roll! I am so excited to spill all of my secrets I’ve been keeping to myself
(haha)! Go read the feature story for all of the details and the inside scoop on
our Big Kahuna, Queen and Grand Marshall!! Now that y’all know what they look
like – aim your squirt gun at them!!! With love!
This month’s Traveling Beachcomber winner goes to Ann Currington, who
happened to be in Orlando, FL at the Jimmy Buffett concert when Jimmy looked
over to check out Ann and what she was reading!!! I fell over!!! Great picture
Ann! Maybe Jimmy will go to A-J’s with Ann?? Keep on keeping on Jimmy!
Beachcomber will make you famous!
