Default Lunch at the beach MRY PIREP

Had a great flight today, my longest x-country so far at 276 miles. It was a
$100 hamburger flight from 47A (Canton, GA. 40 miles north of Atlanta) to
MYR, Myrtle Beach, SC. With a stiff tailwind, I had the outbound leg and
made it from engine start to shutdown in exactly 2.0 on the Hobbs.

Got a courtesy car from the extremely friendly folks at the FBO for 2 hours
for the very short drive to the beach where we at at Damon's on the deck
overlooking the beach. Sloooow service for just a couple of appetizers, but
the portions were much larger than we expected or dared to eat with a long
flight home still ahead.

We took off on runway 18 and turned home as we crossed over the beach. Great
view. My flying buddy Tom had the homebound leg, but with the tailwind now a
headwind, we crawled back in 2.9 hours. All that time with thick haze and
clouds all over the place, but no actual. We're trying to get our CRM nailed
down and I think we've got a good start for the relatively short time we've
flown together.
