~~South Carolina~~
The Sandlapper State
The Palmetto State
Beautiful Places, Smiling Faces
The Big Apple, The Shag
Gamecocks, Tigers and Bulldogs
The Historic Tours.
The Best Hotels,
Just to name a few things.
Not to mention Charleston;
Hilton Head and more...

We just don't seem to want life
Better, flying that darn rebel flag.
We are celebrating the dead while
People are hungry, and can not get
Jobs.  Conventions gone the other way
Where that flag flies people will not stay.

Louisa A Dobbins

Very true! I went to High School at Myrtle Beach High in the late 70s, my father owned a hotel there. I understand about the state and can relate. My book, "The Voyage of Billy Buckins" is based on Charleston in 1754. I love the state but it has some very sad political figures. I can't say much for our Tennessee politicians either, I was born here.

You have a very good eye for what is really there and the sadness lurking in your heart is profound...

Be always safe,
Karen
