You sure seem to have a chip on your shoulder about the south,

I've been to some very nice places in every state you mentioned.





Every state has "some nice places," but I wasn't taking about
beaches,

scenic overlooks, museums or other natural or manmade venues. I was

talking about where right-wing craziness rules the roost and is

encouraged.



I like coastal South Carolina.

My oldest son just moved his family from MA to Mount Pleasant, SC.

Beautiful place, within a few miles of the Isle of Palms Marina; one

of my stops when taking the Navigator south to Jupiter, FL.



He's been emailing pictures of several local marinas with slips for

sale. Seriously thinking of another boat down there in about a
year.

Just need to talk Mrs.E. out of her horses.

Mt. Pleasant is a nice place, and there are lots more all over the
state. The Lexington / Lake Murray area is one, and in the upstate
the Greenville / Spartanburg area is nice. Almost no one from SC goes
to Myrtle Beach, however. Tourist trap. Hilton Head is the upscale
beach destination here. Edisto Island is a quieter, family kind of
beach.

We'll be on the water in Charleston in about 24 hours. I'll wave in
your son's general direction. Did he move down for Boeing?

-------------------------------------------

Nope. He moved down because he got sick of Massachusetts. He and his
wife lived together for a year or so while he was
in the Navy, stationed down there. They loved it. Plus, he suffers
from severe asthma and there's something up here in
MA that constantly triggers it. He has far fewer and milder attacks
down there.

They have two girls aged 13 and 8. A year ago his wife had twins, one
girl, one boy. So, he has his hands full now at 39 years old.

I am looking forward to taking a trip down there this fall and scope
out the marinas and boats.
Mrs.E. is finally starting to agree that we don't need a place as
large as we have up here in MA.
