July 4th Boat Parade in Murrell’s Inlet
July 2, 2019
For a fun taste of Low Country Living, Murrell’s Inlet and Garden City offer an annual Fourth of July Boat Parade.
Decorated boats line up at high tide at the southern tip of Garden City and cruise down Murrell’s Inlet. Docks along the inlet are decked out in flags and all things red, white, and blue to put everyone in a patriotic spirit.
Kids shoot water cannons at the boats as they pass. Everyone waves flags and cheers at the boats as they sail down the inlet.
The marsh is a beautiful setting to see everyone celebrate freedom!!
This year’s celebration begins around 9:00 am, according to the official Murrell’s Inlet Boat Parade Facebook page, found at this link:

Great places to see the boats go by are along the Murrell’s Inlet Marshwalk, Morse Park Landing, and the Belin Methodist Church area. Nance’s Restaurant has a nice area at the back of their parking lot to view the marsh if it’s still allowed.

True Fall came today
October 18, 2018
Living in the Low Country of South Carolina
and working from home, the transition
into Fall seems to be the most notable for me.
The day when a beach bum has to put on long pants
marks the true end of Summer.

This is Campbell’s Covered Bridge in Landrum, SC.
It’s the only remaining covered bridge in the state.
The grounds surrounding the bridge are a
county park where you can picnic
or go wading in the stream.

October has been very warm this year
and we’ve had no change of color in the trees yet.

Happy Fall!!
A Lucky Shot

We visited the Zoo
in Greenville, SC this past weekend.
The Brazilian Ocelots were
both asleep the first time we walked through.
Fortunately, we decided to make one more go-round.
