Boats, beer, massive crowds, plus rural South Carolina scenes.

Though I've never been much of a boating person, I still enjoyed Bo Person's piece about the a 120-year-old Rockville Regatta in the quiet town way out on Wadmalaw Island today, August 7, and Sunday.

Take a read of that piece over here.

If you're not familiar with Rockville, we pointed out a nice profile of the town a while back.
