To whet your appetite, here are some of the thousands of photos I have taken in the area over the last 2 ½ decades. Memories are made of this…

Just one of the hundreds of engaging sculptures on the 9,000 acres of Brookgreen Gardens, about 10 minutes north of Pawleys Island.
The signature par 3 13th at the Jack Nicklaus designed Pawleys Plantation golf course. Members describe the short one shotter as "the shortest par 5 in Myrtle Beach" (the Myrtle Beach area has 80 golf courses).
