Walking off the beach at Edisto this afternoon....

This guy looks at me and says “go Tigers.” I had forgotten that I had my orange BYOG t shirt on. What a refreshing way to start a vacation!
Go Tigers!

Haven’t been to Edisto in years (unfortunately). Has something happened to the beach?

I think that they have been pumping sand from the deep to the shallow for a while now, and they did the same thing in Beaufort....

They got rid of those rock piles too and they widened the beach. Actually very nice now. Y’all going crabbing r anything.
Oh FYI. The state park on edisto has some really nice cabins. Yes, air conditioned. Bunk beds for kids. Kitchen kinda small but functional. Extremely affordable prices. Ocean front too but have trees between state park and ocean.

Have absolutely no plans except to spend time with kids & grandkids. They will make all the decisions about how I spend my time. I will get even with them next time they come here.

It was improved with a nourishment project. Actually I designed it. I love my job. We also did the job at Wild Dunes IOP that someone mentioned.

I'm going to Orange Beach Alabama on July 7th and will certainly pack the Clemson gear and we plan on flying a Clemson flag everyday on the beach as well.

Spent the week at Edisto and saw more coots than in the past but still more Tigers. Also saw fewer Ohioans than the past few years. Edisto is still a very relaxing vacation.

That storm hit the day bids were accepted to pump 2 million yards of sand on the beach. The sand was scraped off the road and back onto the beach and the project was rebid and built.

Not sure Bert’s qualified as a grocery back in the day. Beer, weed and wax was about all they had.
