We stayed for 3 nights in Madison SC primarily so that we would be able to visit with our good friends Steve and Elaine who came off the road last year to live in a Del Webb community at Lake Oconee SC. The highlights of our stay were (1) playing cards (we LOVE to play cards and so do Steve and Elaine), (2) lunch at the Madison ChopHouse Grille<\/a>, (3) dinner at the Bone Island Grillehouse<\/a> and (4) a tour of the Del Webb at Lake Oconee<\/a> “active retirement community.”<\/p>\n

The weather did not cooperate – it rained all three days. The best weather was when it was simply cloudy and damp. The pictures I took were, consequently, a bit drab and didn’t do either town justice. Both Madison (the larger of the two towns) and Greensboro exhibited an abundance of southern charm. Both had some interesting antique shops. But the meals were the real highlights for both.<\/p>\n

For lunch at the Madison ChopHouse I chose the Cajun shrimp po-boy. It was tasty but quite spicy. But I had to do it – I think it was my first po-boy ever. My dinner selection at the Bone Island Grille was jambalaya. Again, very spicy, but good.<\/p>\n

The Del Webb tour was an eye-opener. I was impressed by the quality of the construction, the size and d\u00e9cor of the community buildings (including the indoor swimming pool) and the beautifully landscaped grounds. Jett and I are not quite ready to come off the road, but when we do we will have to consider a Del Webb community. Very high quality for a very reasonable price.<\/p>\n
