Wednesday April 12 at Kiawah - Since last post, the temps have been climbing everyday. Today is going to be 80. Here's some snippets since last post:

• ran another 5 miler on Monday and took a long cycle on Tuesday - the bike trails here are awesome
• doreen and I both rode bikes a lot on Monday - our butts hurt!
• ate lunch at the Chareston Crab House (good) - Doreen had shrimp salad; I had seafood platter with fried oyster - ummmmmmm - went to Folly Beach (not good) - scrappy little beach town - did a drive by....
• we tried sitting on beach on Monday, but it was soooo windy, we about got buried in sand
• we grilled steak on the deck Monday evening and tried a new S.Carolina wine
• went to Charleston Tuesday and spent the entire day (from abt. noon 'til 6 pm)
• walked & walked the city - wonderful place - took lots of pictures - ate at Tommy Condon's which is an Irish Pub (very good) - there are soooooo many restaurants in Charleston! - later got expresso (me) and frozen cofee (doreen) at a little Italian bistro - people watched on the patio
• did some minor shopping - i got 2 shirts - doreen still looking for the "perfect one"
• today (Wednesday) - we're hanging at the beach - will try to find that sweatshirt for doreen at another area close to here call ed Seabrook Marina - i have my eye on some really cool hiking boots - my old ones are dying
• going biking again today (Wednesday) - doreen wants to see every lookout on the island and we want to go in all 5 Golf Resorts to see how the rich people live (and scope out the restaurants)

Later - gotta get off the freakin' internet and go have some fun . . . . . . bob
