Monterey Bay Suites Myrtle Beach

... heron pictured below, roseate spoonbills, wood storks, a beautiful Kingfisher, a woodpecker, and an avocet. The avocet was a "new bird" for Brenda so she was quite excited. There were assorted other birds and various ducks. We searched in vain for the alligators that inhabit the marshes. <br><br>We had lunch in Murrel's Inlet at a dockside restaurant with a beautiful view ...

... around for a few hours, then moved on to explore some of the local coastline. Unfortunately we had some bad news when we got back to the Hotel, that Caroline's mum has been taken into hospital, so our thoughts are with her at the moment as she makes ...

... we went back to the hotel to get ready for the first night of the reunion.<br> <br><br><br>Tim and Brenda (our college roomies) arrived and we went to the Grillhouse for dinner. Then it was back to meet the Pine Forest alumni. They seem to be your typical bunch of "old geezers" as Rick calls them. Some older and geezier than others! The band they had put together of alumni - some of whom used to play together - was surprisingly ...

... 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 ...

... stayed yet.<br><br>Also, a bunch of us decided we deserved a fun night on the town. We ended up going to this strange little gay bar and restaurant, which just happened to be having Jeopardy night. Needless to say, with my weekly trivia skills under belt, I felt compelled to sign up. I won my round against two of my cast members, and we proceeded to dance and drink and just have fun. Well, only 2 other rounds of Jeopardy were played, so I was one of the top 3 scores, which ...

Huntington Beach is about 20 minutes south of Myrtle Beach. WW and I came here because we like birds, and we saw a lot of them. One we could not photograph is the Roseate Spoonbill, which was too far away, but we saw them in our binocs.<br><br>WW saw her ...

The pics tell the story. There are loggerhead turtle nests here. WW and I got a campsite far from the beach in a private site nestled in the forest.<br><br>Camping is $30 a night. SC has an income tax and an 8% sales tax. All of the State Park employees I met ...

... will feel Alice tug at any rings that you have on your fingers. There have been countless accounts of this event, but don&#8217;t believe them. Come and see for yourself. <br><br>The Grand Strand is an endless supply of fun and sun but the excitement doesn&#8217;t stop there. You ghost hunters and shadow dwellers have more than a handful of locations to visit and sites to see here on the coast. <br><br>Provided by Monster Vacations Group <br><br>

... too many adults do it. After we go to the beach. I find mini shells for Christy. A bit cool today at the beach.  Back at the Rec room for free ice cream that we bring back to the villa for supper. Taco. We go back to the rec room for bingo. I win twice. Not normal. I even win (flip coin) against a lady who had bingo at the same time (full card). Obviously the prize are a little out of date prizes. But I won. Back home for movies on TV. Again older but free.          

We woke up to some pretty good rain today. We had to check out by 11 and we could check into the Yatchsman at 3 so we were just killing time (along with about 100 other bikers at the hotel!). Got a call from Marc and they were coming down so we planned to meet them around noon (good a car incase it continued to rain!!!). By the time ...
