My "Southward migration" refers to having been born in NH and having progressively moved South...to PA, then VA, scouted out TX for a few years (for future use maybe) and now live in NC.

Camping in SC


Mandy and I had a nice weekend camping with her family in SC. Her uncle brought a jet ski that she enthusiastically threw me off of. I gently returned the favor...a couple times.

We went fishing and Mandy caught a large mouth bass and a catfish, both over a foot long. She was so excited and I think we've found her new passion.

We rode our new (to us) mountain bikes on a trail and took a break along the lake to wade into the water as a thunderstorm rolled across the other side of the lake.
On our circuitous route home, we stopped in Greenville to go shooting w/ Lynn & Henry. We had a "blast" with Mandy's .22 Winchester rifle that guys oohed and ahhed over, a .22 Ruger pistol, and then a few shots from my .45 to knock the rust off (my abilities, not the pistol). Lynn & Henry made a great lunch topped off with Mandy's favorite cake from Strossner's for her birthday this week.

We missed those who weren't there. Lake Wateree has turned out to be a great park for us. We'll be back!
