North Myrtle Beach Adventure

Yesterday, John took an hour to wash and check Miz B's vitals.  We are headed to North Myrtle Beach on Friday morning.  There will be a group of 11 couples going down to celebrate the successful event in Charleston.  One couple has generously arranged for three cottages, all lined up side by side, for us to occupy while down there.  

Our plan is to leave about 8:30 from a spot on the east side of Columbia.  We will then travel to Mullins for a great lunch at Webster Manor.  One couple will already be there waiting for us, they plan to spend tonight at the Manor.  Sounds like fun!  After lunch, we will continue on our way to North Myrtle Beach.

It is supposed to be very cold, by South Carolina standards, on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, yet warm up to the low 50's during each of the days.  Definitely a trip with the side curtains up!

Speaking of side curtains - I made a small improvement to them.  I had noticed that where the curtain met the top rail of the door, the curtain was taking on a slight blue tint.  Not a good thing.  I think that the tiny dirt deposits on the curtains was rubbing a bit of the paint and adhering to the curtains.  I sewed a strip of the rip stop fabric across the area in question onto the curtains and that should eliminate the rubbing by the plastic curtain on the paint.  The rip stop fabric is very slick nylon.

Anyway, back to our trip......

Saturday will be a day open for anything.  Perhaps, John and Danny will play a little golf, while some of us go shopping, or to Brookgreen Gardens, or Atalaya at Huntington Beach State Park, or some may even go into Georgetown to the Rice Museum.  A relaxing day at the beach!

Sunday morning, we need to be out of the houses by 10, but our plan is to leave by 9.  Shouldn't be an issue.  Our lunch stop will be in a town named Scranton.  I've never heard of it, but there is supposed to be a great barbecue place for lunch.

I don't anticipate any issues with the car.  She has been running very well.  I took her, on Tuesday night, to a meeting in West Columbia.  The halogen headlights work extremely well.  The back country roads were well lit and the car ran beautifully.

So, tomorrow, North Myrtle Beach here we come!
