Niko’s Ride - Day 2 - Part 2
After our stop under our tree canopy, we did not make it much farther down the road before we had to take another stop. This time, we stopped at a gas station, parked the bike at the pump under the canopy, and stood on the side of the building to keep from getting drenched. It was a downpour!
It rained hard for about 15 minutes, and then it was gone. Denny called up Cody Boy, and found out that he was at an event in Richmond Hill, so we headed that way to meet him. I bought a few little things for Niko and Ty, fed a duck, raced boats with the local cub scout troop, and learned about ‘balsa wood flowers’. Those are neat!
We spent about an hour or so there with Cody Boy, and made some plans for a ride tomorrow.
We mounted back up, and headed east to Tybee Island. We tried to get a room at the HoJo’s as that is where Freddie stays when he comes here, but they were full. So we drove two hotels down from there to the Dunes Inn, where we got the last available room for $203.00! YIKES!
Not the nicest of rooms for the price we paid, but one bonus is it is right next door to where we wanted to eat anyway. StingRays is my fathers favorite bar and grill on Tybee, so we were certian that is where we were going to have our dinner.
Denny had a dozen raw Oysters, and then the Flounder and Shrimp platter - which he enjoyed, but says there was not enough Flounder - he expected a larger portion. I had the Crab Cake platter and the cakes were delicious, and so was the slaw!
After our meal, we called it a day, and headed back to the room for some rest before our ride tomorrow.
