Travelogue South Carolina – A Late Return
This is how I feel this morning… like at any moment I might
drop off to sleep. Ironically, at the same time, I am still a bit wired from
the travel.

Travelogue South Carolina – In Transit
If there is anyone who truly believes that the travel
industry has been set-up to cater to our comfort, I would love to meet them. Whenever
I travel, I remember a cartoon from that classic of childhood, MAD
MAGAZINE.
Cyber Monday
"Holiday Shopping At Work Season" Begins
Travelogue South Carolina – Departure Day
The day started early. Well, not really early for me, but early for vacation!

Travelogue South Carolina – Fun And Games
There is something instructive about watching a child play
a game. My cousins had some friends come over to spend the day and so we had
the opportunity to do something together.

Travelogue South Carolina – Visiting Family
There must have been some kind of a game this weekend.
Every car I passed had either a cartoon representation of a paw print of some
sort on it or a tiger tail hanging out of it. The one stop I made (for gas and
a stretch) there were people in the gas station that had the paw print painted
on their faces. I suppose if I cared anything for sports I might know more
about it but…
Travelogue South Carolina – BEACH TIME!
What trip to the beach would be complete without a trip to
the beach! We all had a polar bear morning today and headed out for a swim.

Black Friday
"Holiday Shopping Season" begins
Travelogue South Carolina – Time To Walk
One of the things I love about this place is that there is
no schedule. Everybody is pretty free to do whatever – whenever. This morning,
I slipped off to have a walk along the beach. (I have to do something to work
off at least some of the calories from last night's meal!)

Travelogue South Carolina – Time to Work
For those of us who live in a condo complex (or apartment
for that matter) a vacation might include doing work around the house. There is
not a lot of yard work for us. No pruning, clearing brush, no yard maintenance.
That is all done for us.

Travelogue South Carolina – Lowlands Barbecue
There are always lots of wonderful things to do at the
beach. Good friends, food, and drink. One of my favorites has always been the
Carolina Lowlands Barbecue! The lovely pork marinated in a combination of
vinegar, pepper, and savory spices! Ohhhhh!
Travelogue South Carolina – Southern Snow
I left the cold of Colorado for a white thanksgiving in
South Carolina.

Travelogue South Carolina - Arrival
I am SO glad that I didn't decide to
drive on to the beach this evening – er, morning! It is just after midnight and
I am waiting for my bags. It is, at least, clear and cold here. There is some
delay with the bags. I've already had a chance to get the car, walk my carryon
bags down to it and leave them in the trunk, have a bit of a stretch.
Travelogue South Carolina – In Transit
The flight here was completely uneventful – that's always
a good thing!
Denver, Colorado Founded (November 22, 1858)
Travelogue South Carolina – Departure
To quote the old song:
"All my bags are
packed
I'm ready to go…"

Travelogue South Carolina – Preparations
Saga knows that something is going on. I'm always active on
weekends; I go out for my weigh-in first thing, do my grocery shopping,
laundry, and either walk the treadmill in my office or head out to the park for
a long hike. So it is not that she's not used to the activity, but she is smart…
she saw my baggage come out and the laundry get packed instead of going
upstairs to the bedroom as it came out of the machines. Yes, Saga knows that
something is up.

The First Blizzard Of The Season
It rolled in exactly as predicted; the snow stared falling
around nine last night after a light drizzle which began at around sundown.

Who Says Halloween Is Just For Kids!?
My friends once again threw an excellent party. As is their wont, they went completely overboard with their costumes, decorations, and party prep! But then, where a good time is involved, can one really go overboard? 've said it before, I will say it again: People from New Orleans throw the best parties. I have no idea how I got so lucky to have such cool friends!
