I like coastal South Carolina.



The worst racist assholes I have ever met were in the DC area. Most

were cops. The only Klan meeting I ever actually knew about was in

southern PG county.



As a place to visit, it is hard to beat the mountains in southern

North Carolina.



We had a bunch of tourists on the local news earlier this week.

Some were from the Carolinas and some from Penn. They came up to

avoid the sweltering heat at home and were quite pleased with our more

moderate temperatures in the mid 70's F range.



They could have just gone West 50-100 miles. It was beautiful in the

mountains in July. High 70s in the day, mid 60s at night.

Yup. The Blue Ridge Mountains are a close, easy getaway from the heat when we want a break. But the lake works too!
