Today we drove from Charleston to Myrtle Beach. We enjoyed a nice relaxing breakfast before packing the car and leaving. We stopped at one of the roadside booths on our way and spent some time speaking with one of the ladies that was weaving baskets. It was really nice to speak with her and she showed us how she weaves the baskets. She had so many to choose from. It still amazes me how expensive these baskets are as some of the weavers are charging between $100-$150 just for a small bowl shape basket. Celestine believes in keeping her prices down to a more reasonable amount which helps her sell more of her craft. I'll do a more length post of her with pictures at a later time.
We are staying at the Hilton and will move to our condo on Saturday.
Tomorrow we are golfing at Caledonia. Ralph is quite excited and looking forward to that. It's in the afternoon so hopefully the weather will be good. We had some rain late in the day today and that's all you hear from everyone, is talk about the weather. It has rained constantly here for the month. The forecast is for rain until Sunday and then it should start to clear up.
