Eat That Shrimp!!

One of my favorite weekends of the year has arrived. It’s Shrimp Festival Weekend, and the Beachin’ Bob troupe assumes our customary role as unofficial visitor guides for the uninitiated. Our command post is located at Phoenix All Suites, as per the norm. It’s simply too convenient to be believed to walk from the hotel directly onto the Festival grounds. (For those who prefer a little quiet time between trips to the festival, try out Phoenix All Suites West, a short walk down the beach from the Festival.)

The food will be outstanding, and they’ve got some great music and activities.

See you at the Beach!!

Shrimp Festival


The National Shrimp Festival is slated for October 9 - 12. It's always a great time and this year should be no exception. From my post at Phoenix All Suites (right next door to the festival) I'll be taking in the sights, sounds, food and drink. This year's entertainment lineup includes: The Tip Tops, Joe Dee Messina, local favorite Brent Burns, rocking blues guitarist Wes Jeans, southern rock legends Molly Hatchet, and many more. Book early, it's usually a sell out. The food is awesome (don't miss the Cajun Pistols), the music is great and running on multiple stages, the vendor booths are interesting and unique. It's a can't miss event.
See you at the Beach!

P.S. This year's poster is a creation from my good friend Marjorie McCullough. If you see her at the festival, make sure you tell her Hi from Beachin' Bob.
