| Hope on Goat, Goat Island, S.C. |
I caught a boat for a short ride and stepped on Goat Island for the first time. Today was Hope on Goat, a benefit for
Louie's Kids and the ticket included oysters, hot dogs, fish stew, music and a silent auction. What wasn't mentioned in the publicity was the delightful quirkiness of the place. My friend Josephine and I walked the length of the island grinning at all the fun signs and artsy odds and ends. We even found a few goats!
Louie's Kids is a tax-exempt, nonprofit organization that raises funds
to help treat childhood obesity, which afflicts 25 million American
children today. Louie's Kids works to find the best treatment options to
meet the needs of each child. We find the fix that fits, one kid at a
time.

It looks like a deliriously enjoyable place to visit!
Is that goat stew?
That looks like loads of fun!
When I first read the title of this post, I thought it said "Hop on Goat" - like Dr. Seuss' "Hop on Pop", only more rural.
It was pretty sweet. Some of the houses are for vacation rentals but there are also permanent residents.
Heheh....that would be awkward! It was fish stew. Pretty yummy.
It was a lovely day.
Ha! Good one :) I was pleased that I did track down the two remaining goats on the island.
