Vacation! Yay!

Not that I don't love my job, because to be quite honest.  I do.  Sometimes I don't understand everything I am doing and I am bad at BSing my way through things. 

So. With that said.  We go to Edisto Island, South Carolina.  If you visited there you would say OMG how boring.  Exactly.  I been going with my husband Phillip since way before we got married.  Then there is this!  We have been staying in the same house on Ediso since my niece Lauren (we call her Lolly) was still in the womb.  I am pretty sure you can put us down for 30 years there.  It's so great.  We cook our own food.  We tell stories.  So fun.  We boat ride to Morgan Island.  Now Morgan Island is a federal protected island for monkey research.  It's true.  There are monkeys there.  They hear the boat and come running.  Then there is the yearly trip to the mausoleum.  There you have the Legend of Julia Legare ghost story.  She died visiting the island and then when they opened the door to bury someone else her bones were found beside the door.  Not to mention the scratches on the door frame where the poor thing tried to get out.  Every now and again someone will pick her up and give her a ride.  But she is gone usually by the time they get there.  We have never picked her up as of yet.

Mostly for me it's just a book and sitting on the beach.  It's more than enough.

We start our vacation with a trip to Anderson, South Carolina where my husband's family lives.  We cook a pig tonight and we eat him tomorrow night.  It's another tradition.  Of course.  This will be the best pig they have ever cooked.

More Christmas trees.  Hehe.  Coming to somewhere soon.   

James Taylor.  Carolina In My Mind

In my mind I'm goin' to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine
Can't you just feel the moonshine
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind
And I'm goin' to Carolina in my mind.
