400 miles to Myrtle Beach

Mark and I were suppose to leave for our shopping/selling trip Friday.  Instead, we left at 8:00 this morning and drove a little over 400 miles. We had plenty of time to talk and listened to radio sermons, and music. I also got to study my bible and read.

 We stopped at several shops and only found one thing in Georgia to buy and nothing in South Carolina....yet.

 We did find the beach and checked in to a nice little  hotel on  Myrtle Beach and took a long walk on the beach to  the board walk.

 We enjoyed watching the fisherman on the fishing pier.  Last trip, Mark hauled 2 fishing poles all the way to North Dakota.  We broke one of the poles and he never found anywhere to fish.  This time, he did not bring his pole. So, of course,  at lunch we had a picnic  beside a river that would have been a great place to fish. Then tonight we  find  this huge pier full of people catching fish.  We saw our first ribbon fish.  It looked like a cross between an eel and a needle fish only flatter.  

Anyway, we  went back to the room and cooked supper in our little kitchen.  We found two great Spas, one inside  and the other outside .  They were very relaxing and felt great on my sore elbow.  It is getting late and we are getting tired. It was a great first day.  We are two days ahead of schedule and already  400 miles north.
