Wednesday nights at Moore McDonald VFW Post 8967 have a laid-back charm all their own — cold drinks, a shuffleboard tournament on the floor, pool tables in the back, and Brad Ethridge bringing live music to a room that knows how to have a good time. The post is open to the public, so pull up a stool and settle in for a genuine local night out in Port Aransas.
It's the kind of easy evening that pairs perfectly with a stay at Beached Inn — and when the last song fades, the short walk home through Cinnamon Shore, salt air on your skin and the sound of the surf drawing you back, is a pretty fine way to end it.
