Best Tourist Quote

A friend posted this on her Facebook status last night.

Heard the best tourist question ever today....
Customer: "Y'all been havin' a drought here? I noticed the water level's real low."
Coworker: "That would be the tide, sir."

For those unaware, we have pretty extreme tides. This customer was out on the Spit, where the water level can be extremely close to the road or extremely far out. And even more ironically, it was pouring rain all day yesterday. How is that a drought? =)

  1. Ha ha ha, that's a good one. Sounds like someone from the midwest. All we ever talk about is the water level and if it's rained a lot or been a drought.

    Of course one good rain here can turn a drought to a flood.
