Low country fun
July 20, 2009
Several members of the Eagle crew headed downtown on Saturday for the Low Country Boil.
It was the perfect day. Bright and sunny, with plenty of shrimp!
Thanks to Whitney for having the smarts to bring her camera along and grab a few pictures.
The fundraiser for the library proved to be pretty popular. Every time I went to get in line for a plate of food from the Basketcase, the line was flowing down Foster Street.
Great news for the event, but it is hard to be patient when all you can smell is deliciousness.
Here’s the staff cooking up for a crowd.
The Bistro was open for lunch and looked like it was staying busy, The District had a beer truck out front and Tara had a line coming out of her Foster Street Coffee House with visitors trying to get their hands on a sweet treat.
I had a mini-cheesecake covered with chocolate. The boyfriend had a giant chocolate chip cookie. Yum!
Here’s me harassing Betty with cheescake in hand.
Lots of the Foster Street merchants were open, including a hair salon, two thrift stores, the WIND market and some vendors had things out for sale. Sorry if I missed anyone.
The event also had a bouncy house for kids and live music.
Good times. I hope they merchants come together again to throw this block party.
