“Come join us, our ship is sinking!”

“Sure, I like boats,” says I.

We have a small brewery in our little old one block long town. We’ve lived here long enough that the kids I coached at soccer, when they were first graders, are now past college and grown into young adults. Last night, a few of them stood on the sidewalk outside the brewery and, after a few double-takes at my grey and grizzled countenance, recognized me and invited me in to join them.

Sure, I like boats, says I.

Random Snows

Sand Roads, Live Oaks

Avenue of Oaks
Frogmore, Saint Helena Island
South Carolina

Took a ride over to Coffin Point, across from the shrimp boat docks at Frogmore. There’s an old plantation house there, built around 1800, with an expansive view of the inlet. This mile long sand road leads to it, lined with Live Oaks draped in Spanish Moss.
