Itinerary:

Ok, you asked for it so here it is! Michele and I have teamed together and pulled our vast resources and experience for the best overnight trip EVER planned...ok, maybe not ever but it's damn good!!

We are heading back down to Tybee Island for Memorial Weekend since we had such a great time last year. This year, your hosts have up the anty!! We have rented a 5 bedroom house directly on the beach and yes...with a hot tub! Can you dig it!?

The house actually has separate upper and lowers sections. Each has its own kitchen, bedrooms, etc but we have the whole house rented. The upper section has a private sundeck and views of the pier and the lower section has the ever popular hot tub. Check out the house's other amenities and photos at:

Much like last year, for those interested, we will schedule a sea kayaking trip around the island (approx $65), ride bikes around the island (rent for approx $12) and of course, spend lots of time on the golden sands, soaking up lots of warm rays and floating on the cool ocean tides.

We'll plan an evening out for local seafood, maybe fire-up another awesome Low Country Boil and plan mostly group meals.

It's a weekend on the beach...AOC style with hosts Michele and Foz! Join us!

NOTE: Trip NOT for those wishing for a quiet house and going to bed early. :)

Estimated cost per vehicle for this event is $220.80 using a reimbursement rate guideline of $0.400 per mile. The total amount should be divided by the number of people in the vehicle, including the driver. This is a guideline, not a rule, for drivers but the cost should not be higher unless there are extenuating circumstances.
