Living, Working and Writing in Myrtle Beach: Always a party somewhere "at the beach"

   I just did two book signings. The first one was at the entrance to River Hills at Collision Masters. The Little River Chamber of Commerce had their kickoff party there for the Little River Shrimp Fest. Entertainment was by the "Smokin' Hot Band". They were very good. My wife's favorite restaurant, Crab Catchers, won the best "drink maker" first prize. The second one was at La Belle Amie Vineyard in Little River this past Saturday. It is a beautiful place to spend a Saturday afternoon. The band on hand was "Party Favors" and they did a great job. If you're ever in Myrtle Beach, plan on stopping by, you won't regret it.
     The 30th anniversary of the World Am golf tourney was held in Myrtle Beach this past week and participation was up 8% from last year. Approximately 3380 golfers registered to play. They were from 27 countries and 46 states, with only Oregon, Idaho and the Dakotas not represented. There were 11 golfers playing who had played in all 30 of the World Am championships.
     Real estate is still in demand down here. Prices seem to have leveled off and of course, cash is still king. Come on down and enjoy the area. Right now the beaches are empty and rental prices are down.
   If you're in the area this week, I will be doing a presentation and book signing at the North Myrtle Beach Library on Thursday September 5th at 10:00 am.
     See ya, Steve & Bev
