Got in to Myrtle Beach yesterday, last night. Not without some adventure from Ms. GPS. As someone told me, a GPS is a great tool if you know where you are going. Gave me a wrong turn in Myrtle Beach and arrived at some sort of sanctuary. I don't know, maybe that was on purpose but it wasn't where we wanted to be. Parked on the side of a very busy city street while I pondered this most unwelcomed turn of events. Decided to give my GPS gal one more shot at it. Let's face it, did I have a choice? Punched in an address and was instructed to now make a U turn on this very busy street and head back. I settled to enter a busy shopping mall filled with Christmas shoppers and perform a similar U turn on a narrow mall roadway and head back out. My everlasting thanks to some very, very kind and patient South Carolina drivers who cleared a path for some 60 feet of truck and trailer to execute this manouver needing every inch of the alloted space. GPS gal recalculated, humed and hawed and did finally lead me to the promised land. Did I say it was pitch black out?
Now we have settled in for about a week to spend some time with Joan and Ron, Kathy's sister and husband. Will spend Christmas before continuing on to Orlando to hook up with Jeremie and Brennan. Nice day today, low 70s and sunny skies.

Glad to hear you are in South Carolina. Getting closer to warmer temperatures. You will be swimming in the ocean before long.
We sure had an awesome afternoon at Barefoot Beach today. The water was awesome. Merry Christmas to all and hope Santa finds the little girls. B&J
