From a previous thread, beach dweller mentioned a Myrtle Beach GTG. I understand GoTravel & iceeu2 are interested and may be in the area.

I'm flying down around Noon on the 30th. I would like to propose a gathering at Liberty Steakhouse & Brewery for happy hour appetizers and a couple of pints at about 4:00pm on the 30th (here's hoping they have their oatmeal stout).

If the weather's nice, will play golf on the 31st & 1st and will probably be open those afternoons. Flying back to NJ on the 2nd.

Any thoughts? Anyone else interested?

I'm definitely in! Four p.m. at Liberty (at Broadway at the Beach) on Friday 12/30.

Thanks for reminding us about this.

I can't believe that a Fodor's GTG will be so close to my home, and we'll be out of town-- San Francisco area for that week! We drove three hours to the Raleigh GTG and thoroughly enjoyed the dinner and conversation. Would love to be able to attend another one. Any chance of choosing another time?

Good choice in The Liberty Steakhouse and Brewery. It's one of our favorite places to eat/drink at Broadway at the Beach. The brews, as you seem to remember,are excellent! Kathy

If we are there, we will certainly join you. As of now, the plans are to be there from 28th or 29th thru the 2nd. Liberty will be a good change for me and keep me from having to eat every meal at Calabash!! Plus, if we get bored with you boys, we can do some power shopping without ya!!

Should these plans fall thru for whatever reason, y'all can meet us at the beach shack for a few brewskis!

btw, chuck, the kids were at the beach during Thanksgiving and had their feast at Thoroughbred's. I remembered you recommending it one other time. Thanks for that....they enjoyed it!

Budman

Sorry, Kathy, that you won't make it. You'll love SF though. Can't really reschedule because some of us are out-of-towners. But, we'll be back.

Now what makes you think we're going to bore you, iceeu2?

Anybody else? Should be great fun!!

GoTravel

Yep, count us in. We are attending a wedding on the 31st.

Is this the Liberty at Broadway at the Beach or the one on Kings Highway between 76th and 79th in Myrtle Beach?

Budman

Great! Yes, it's at Broadway at the Beach, 21st Ave N. See you then.

Anybody else?

I'm not a regular poster but a consistent lurker who lives in the general vacinity. I'd love to join you.

iceeu2

Great jnine!! Be there or be square!

beach_dweller

I was thinking, I've never been to one of these GTGs.

How will we recognize each other?

Besides the fact that Budman will be the guy two-fisting glasses of Oatmeal Stout

We're the 4 party animals on the left.

I am kinda tall with wild curley blond hair.

Budman

I'm thinking everyone will find us. I'll be wearing my fodorites buttons.

iceeu2

I'm the only one with a drink in my hand!! Imagine that! Cheers dears!

iceeu2

Budman, the Mrs. will be in attendance, correct?

Budman

She wouldn't miss it. She's also got to have their onion rings.

Cheer!!!

Kathleen, we can have our own get-together in San Francisco!

OK, we don't have a Myrtle Beach here, but we have North Beach, Ocean Beach, and maybe more! We can add South Beach Diet to the list (whatever it is )

kathleen

FainaAgain,
Absolutely! Great idea--anyone welcome.

Pick a beach, a bar, a restaurant and we'll be there. Our schedule is very flexible--since it is a vacation. Dec 29-31 in Sonoma Valley, Jan 1-3 in Carmel-Monterey area, Jan 4-6 (and most of the 7th) in San Francisco.

I was getting mighty jealous reading about the GTG so close to home, but now...

OK, let's take it outside I'll start a new thread.
