First of all, from the all the voyageurs, I want to wish Doris Pelligrini a speedy recoverery on her recent surgery. Doris just underwent surgery to have a pacemaker installed. GOD SPEED and GET WELL soon. Also, GET WELL wishes go out to Bill Farmer. Hope to see both of ya'll back on your feet soon.

As the witches and goblins have disappeared so has the month of October. It was busy as the Road Crew hit the highway and visited Wac-camaw Voiture 1316 on 5 October and Palmetto Voiture 576 on 7 October. We had a wonderful visit with the voyageurs and were fed with some of the best food available. Anyone interested in joining the road crew please let me know. It is always good to see how the other Voitures are doing. For our next road trip I am planning on traveling to Murrell's Inlet Voiture 1354. We will be leaving from the Post around 4:00 pm on the 2nd of November.

Also in November Voiture 974, James Island is having an Oyster Roast on the 6th of Nov. from 1-5 pm. Tickets are $17.00 in advance and $20.00 at the door for all you can eat oysters. Come out and enjoy the fun to be had by all.
