Captain Poos in the Little River, Cherry Grove, North Myrtle Beach area has re-invented itself many times. Sunday evening after showing two houses, I called my husband to meet me at Captain Poos. It was just too hot to cook and it was "Five o'clock Somewhere". Poos has been around a longtime.

How quiet it was on Ocean Isle Beach this evening! My husband and I were invited to a clambake at a friend's house, and it was so quiet sitting beside the canal as the tide drifted in and out. Most of the houses across the canal were dark and the few boats and jet skis that entered the canals a
