Folly Beach & Charleston Vacay 2012






20 lbs gone baby!!!




I can't say enough about HomeAway.com and their fabulous vacation rentals...I managed to land a sweet deal on a superb condo right on Folly Beach next to Tides Hotel, smack dab in the middle of where it's all happening!  Loaded up the fam and spent a week having ourselves a blast.  Several highlights included of course frolicking in the ocean, chillaxing at the Tides Beach Bar, exploring all of the quaint little shops & restaurants on Folly my favorite being The Shrimp Company and Taco Boy definitely a must if you're ever on Folly and spending a day in Charleston exploring and eating at Hyman's Seafood Restaurant.  No kidding THE best seafood in that area and I got to sit in the same spot where Oprah Winfrey sat, other notables who dined at our table were Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick among others, a really great experience there.  We were also fortunate enough to tour Patriot's Point where we explored the aircraft carrier the U.S.S. Yorktown, a cutter ship and a submarine.  To end a perfectly amazing trip our last night was spent enjoying the music of THE Folly Beach Bluegrass Society who were FANTABULOUS!!!  Couldn't have asked for more on this trip!

Another Win for Brian At Struttin In The Ruts Mud Bog





Well with the addition of Brian's new F250 Turbo Diesel we were able to haul the old Ford F150 with it's 44's to the Struttin In the Ruts Mud Bog in Surgoinsville, TN and once again my hubby took home 1st place in the Modified Division.  We had a wonderful time with several family members definitely a night to remember!!  Congratulations Brian!
