Sea Pines is stronger than an acre of garlic in West Texas.

That is strong, Mac.

You have to be careful not to overdo it, but I find that trimming much easier to do when I’m away.

Only a handful of restaurants on the island. Two that are the equal of anything on the planet and a couple of others that are Southern Low Country seafood capable. A fish sandwich from one of the latter is as good as the finest Parisian restaurant in its genre. Those fish were swimming in the sound in the last day or so. Fresh.

Not a single breakfast joint on the entire island.

How odd I had already gotten your report on my weekly email from our friends at the NSA. They say BOLO Jim the Fisherman McHugh — he is armed, dangerous and working remotely.

Although the work hookey statute of limitations may have passed by now…A few years ago I had a mfg client in Ohio that I was extremely involved with. Many ‘stuck’ issues and lots of expensive specialists feeding at the trough. It was August and, of necessity, I was forced to do some of my work from our home on Nantucket (see above). One fine day I was laboring away on my wireless infused deck. The day turned into one of those glorious summer Cape Cod days…hot, not a cloud in the sky, breezes very ‘light and variable’ from the northwest. Given these heavy weather conditions, I decided that my work could also be accomplished from my fishing boat. I headed out to the rip off Great Point (point of land on NE corner) to seek out the local blues and stripers. There was a slack tide on the rip (i.e. very calm). The fishing types will probably say not a good time to fish (they are right, the fish were safe…similar to your Tarpon score HA HA). I’m trolling at very slow speed with a line in the water when my cell phone rings. It was another one of our pricey specialists calling from San Francisco. I cut the engine and answered the phone. I am slowly drifting in the slight current, 1/2 mile offshore, no other boats nearby. The SF guy wants to do a three way call with one of the company’s mfg partners in Ecuador. He connects us and for approximately the next 30 minutes we cover and resolve a lot of issues. They had no clue where I was. Again, please do not tell anyone (especially the NSA).

Three of my favorite places: Hilton Head, Highlands, and Daufuskie. My first job out of college was with Sea Pines. Guess I was hoping it would become permanent ‘remote work’.
