Road Warrior And Then Some

I think it takes a certain type of person: Living 24 / 7 in LESS that 100sq ft of living space!! … You sure find out how compatible you are when you find yourself attached at the hip to another individual… With a leash of about 20 ft it is a whole different experience and not without it's challenges: As Steve mentioned tonight after I had spent 20 mins engrossed in conversation with a fisherman … he felt maybe I was ...

Today's weather was perfect for our adventure: a trip to Huntington Beach State Park. Huntington is located at Murrel's Inlet, south of Myrtle Beach. The beach is a small, beautiful, white sand beach with no condos, no houses, nothing to spoil your view (if you are looking north.) Tim and Brenda are birders, so we took a short walk through the woods onto a boardwalk where we saw the ...

We got up early and went to Calabash to buy Christmas ornaments. Then we went into Myrtle Beach to Broadway at the Beach to see the carousel that used to be in MB. We rode it every year from before I can remember until we finally got "too old" for such foolishness. The organ is there, too, but it was all closed up for the winter.






We fed the fish and ducks and then ourselves! After lunch at the Key West ...

... it's hangers, and landing on the parking lot surface. I was puzzled, why now of all things, and saw how the old exhaust was rusted through. I thought it should be OK, with no muffler on temporarily till we got to Florida, but as we headed out of town, the exhaust gas filled the RV instantaneously, prompting me to pull over in the first big city in the country roads out of south Carolina, headed towards Florida. I ...

Hello Myrtle Beach!!! Oh, how I needed you. As we were driving into Myrtle Beach, SC we all hoped we would be at least within walking distance of the beach. Then our prayers were more than answered when we pulled into the Comfort Suites ON THE BEACH... and even better, with all ocean view rooms. It was gorgeous. Upper 60's, slightly cloudy, warm ocean breezes, and the sounds of the waves crashing as we slept with the door to our balcony open. It was by far the best place we ...

... gator(s). A lot of wood storks too. Then we talked through the winter home of the Huntingtons, a couple of rich NY'ers who came here in the winter in the 1930's--buying 9,000 acres, because the Missus had TB. He seemd like a good dude as rich people go.

... temporaries, which means they get no insurance, noretirement benefits , no paid time off (vacation or sick). They make $8 an hour and are forced to take two unpaid weeks off every year (scheduled by the employer) to prevent them from becoming permanent.

... only been speculated on. The origins, often debated, claim that a mother and son were splashing in the ocean when the undertow grew severe and the two tried to make it to the shore. The mother arrived safe on the shore, but the boy was bitten by a Stone Crab and fell beneath the surface. The waves were too loud to hear the boy’s screams as he struggled to keep his head above the surf that eventually took the young man’s life ...

Cadets,We are feeling the effect of the mattress. Doreen and me have sore backs a bit. That's because the mattresses in the villas are not Posturepedic Sealy. So we go to water aerobics for the last time. The water is 87f. and the spa is 104f.. It helps the old bones.Tip: Take advantage of these services. Wherever you are. They will help your holidays and they are free (in the price of admission that is).After we have lunch and we are off to the flea market. This our last activity on the ...

... key day. We went to the big tourist trap mall area (kinda like Ontario Mills for those of you familiar with that back home) and checked it out. We ended up at Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville and had lunch. Crazy place, but kinda fun, I guess. Lots of parrots and island paraphernalia. We kept meaning to go miniature golfing. The place apparently is the golf capitol of the world and has something like 180 golf courses ...
