last summer trip.

today I will be riding off into the sunset (okay not really) but I will be riding/driving off to myrtle beach, sc for a long labor day weekend to soak up the last moments of summer.
 
I realize some people turn their nose up at myrtle beach. 
 
 
It's not the prettiest beach.  It's not the nicest beach.  It's not the fanciest beach.  It's not the quietest beach.
 
 
 
It has more buffetts and putt-putt golf courses per capita in probably the entire U.S.
 
but it's the beach I've gone to every year since I was born.  It's like my 2nd home.  I have so many memories there.
 
I was THIS close to going to Coastal Carolina University, but at the last minute I chose USC.
 
I had two dreams when I was younger....1) to apply to be on the real world when I turned 18 and 2) to live in myrtle beach after high school and work at Dick's Last Resort.  Neither of those are my dreams, but I can remember the way I felt about those dreams.

Love it - I've always wanted to live near a beach, but I grew up in Kansas!

Myrtle Beach is a rite of passage for every South Carolinian! I have tons of great memories from the big MB.

I've heard great things about Myrtle Beach! I'm the same way wit Ocean City, MD. I've been every single year since I was a baby and I've taken my son there every year since he was born as well! My dreams are to own a beach house one day ;) I'm jealous about the beach trip:( We are going to Disney soon and couldn't afford a beach trip this weekend. Have fun!
