I realize I am inexcusably late in posting about this trip that I took over Labor Day weekend. Work has been hectic to the point where I just have not found the time to step back and work on this. While I could split this up into different parts, I’m just going to post a summary, as I need to get working on the most recent trip, to the Smokies over Thanksgiving.

I try to get to South Carolina at least once a year to spend time with Cathie of CLCrow Photography (Myrtle Beach). As usual, I flew into Raleigh-Durham, and Cathie picked me up to take me to Myrtle Beach. We were concerned about holiday rush hour traffic, as I had arrived on the Friday before Labor Day. But, the traffic was not all that bad. That night, we spent a little time at Garden City Pier after the sunset.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The rest of the trip was spent exploring Charleston, including visits to Boone Hall, Charlestowne Landing, and then sunset on the Mt. Pleasant side of the Ravenel Bridge leading into Charleston. We also spent time in Myrtle Beach, at Huntington Beach State Park and Brookgreen Gardens. We also met up with Robbie Bischoff, a local photographer and licensed FAA drone pilot, for sunrise on Labor Day.

All in all, it was a great trip, but as with most, it was over too soon and before I knew it, I was heading home.
