Spent a week with the family just outside of Charleston, SC. It was me and wifey, my parents, and my sister, her husband, and my niece. No blood was shed, no fists were thrown, and all in all it was a good trip. The only real complaint was that someone kept dropping the AC down to 68. I get chilled easily (because of my kidneys) and my mother is cold-natured so we were not happy.
We had a 3 bedroom 3 bath condo on the beach. Of course it rained like every day. I think we ate seafood at least once a day. My brother-in-law said he had reached his limit on seafood. Wifey and I were just getting started. We did the aquarium (not that good), a harbour tour, a horse drawn carriage tour, and lots of walking. Wifey and I went out to Angel Oak one day on our own. It is the oldest living thing east of the Mississippi. They say it is around 1600 years old. Pretty impressive.
Mom wanted to do a family trip with some of her inheritance from my grandmother's death last year. So that is the main reason we went.
Wifey and I ate at some of the restaurants we found when we were there a few years ago for a wedding and one that she found when she was there for business. Mmmmm.
Saw a bunch of dolphins playing a couple of different times. Wanted to go deep sea fishing but the weather was too rough. Also wanted to go see a minor league baseball game (I love minor league games) but I think they were all rained out.
Will let you know how the photo books are when we get them printed.
In other news, the WSOP just started this weekend. Unfortunately it will not be shown on TV until starting in August. I will just have to keep up with the reports on the internet to see how it is going. The big event isnt for a few weeks. I have read accounts of people waiting 4+ hours in line to register for events. Some events are "selling out" which is hard to fathom.
The big announcement I was hoping to make this week has been postponed at least another week. It is probably not anything that most of you are thinking but keep your fingers crossed anyway.
