Me and my family almost got murdered by a hobo this weekend.

Finally got the boat running well. So we decide to take it to the bay in Georgetown to really test her out.

Water was really calm going out there, really rough coming back and when you're in a 15 ft jon boat, you feel every bump.

Anyways, get to the light house and start walking around exploring as you do. Walked inside the USCG old house there that has been abandoned since probably 1980's. No windows nothing. Start walking down the hallway where the bedrooms are and one of the doors slams hard 3 times from inside the bedroom.

My first thought is wind, but I notice, no wind is blowing and no other doors are moving.

So naturally I grab my son who's going to see what's going on and we turn around and get out of there quick.

But wasn't a bad day, went down the shell island next the jetties. Quickly realized that is too much for that little boat.

Got stuck on a couple of sand bars and some pluff mud.

Made it back without being killed by a meth head so it was a good day.

A door slamming?

Someone was in the room slamming the door to keep us from going back there***

it worked.

And since this is Georgetown I'm assuming it's a methhead hobo because that's about all there is down there.

The wind wasn't blowing at zero ft above sea level.

At 100' above sea level, I'm guessing the lighthouse acts like a big reverse chimney.

You were scared of the wind.

Where do you think the hobo meth head that you never saw came from?

Did he walk there from Pawleys Island? Did this hobo meth head ride out there in his jon boat, too?

You said all the windows were busted out in the light house, so there's no way wind was blowing down the lighthouse to slam doors closed, right?

I had my main garage door open yesterday and Bernoulli made my side garage door slam like my wife was mad at me.

Just admit you scared yourself and let the drama go to your head.

But to take a 15 foot Jon boat out into the bay w tides and waves etc. That’s not very smart.

watched their dad panic-squeal and run like a teen girl when the wind blew some shutters open.

Pretty good chance they AREN'T telling their friends at school about their weekend.
