Fun Things To Do
Heading North
I’m wondering where the days have gone. We’ve not done much of any significance in the past few weeks and now its time to leave Myrtle. I find not working to be quite expensive. And it’s not the lack of funds funneling into the bank account. It’s my contribution to the oil companies and department … Continue reading
Friends at Myrtle Beach
We didn’t drive far, landing just outside of Myrtle Beach last week. We settled in at Willow Tree Resort,one of the finest parks in all our travels. In fact, our first workamping stint came here some four years ago. This was the place in which I got fired for the first time in my life … Continue reading
Friends
We left Lake In Wood last weekend, leaving the rig on site for the insurance adjuster to address. We headed West in the truck for a few weeks of visiting friends. Our plans were to meet up with Tom and Deanna at Table Rock Lake in western Missouri. Tom and Deanna are friends we worked … Continue reading
9/11 In a Different Light
09/11/01 is stamped indelibly in our minds. We remember the morning, where we were, and the aftermath of that infamous date. Not to diminish those events, I commemorate that day in my own personal way. 9/11 was the date I chose for my cancer surgery and this marks my fourth anniversary sans the dreaded “Big … Continue reading
Tuesdays with Erin
For the past three Tuesdays, I have foresaken Ken as a golf partner. Yes, he has been replaced by a younger, prettier, and better golfer. Erin has taken up the sport. And much like he other athletic pursuits, she’s a natural. When she applies the mechanics of my instruction, she outdrives me as well as … Continue reading
Visitors Welcome
After Robin went to babysit the remainder of my week was typical. Ken and I played golf as we have a standing date every Tuesday. Ken works the pool while his wife Pat does her workamper stint in the office. I repeated the adventure again on Wednesday and had the best round of my life. … Continue reading
Creating Memories
Absence isn’t always due to duress or mental concern. Sometimes, a common existence can be mundane to the outside viewer. I always want to entertain but try as I might, my life’s days are not always the peak of stimulata. I thought I would share the past few weeks with you via photos. We’re back … Continue reading
Friday Night Special
Chris and Jay enjoyed their visit to the point that they spent and extra half day with us. By the time they left, Jay had become an expert on the Segway and Chris was treated to an afternoon tour of as much of the Amish countryside as we could. I’m adding a bit of Jay’s … Continue reading
Mens’ Night Out
I was basking in the elixir of fatherhood yesterday. Unlike lyrics from “The Cat’s In the Cradle“, Ryan makes time for me which I find uncomparable. We exchanged stories about his new offspring, chased pars with another twosome on the links and then topped the evening off with a Phillies game. I have a penchant … Continue reading
Santee Cooper River System
Posting has been slow this week. There is no campground WiFi so we’ve had to resort to our own Verizon MyFi. And that’s slow as well as cell towers are as scarce as the biting largemouths. A large part of the time has been spent exploring the lake. Lake Marion is the largest lake in South Carolina, … Continue reading
