Our family spent the week with appointments at colleges that Mark, our #3
son of four is interested in (telecommunications, film production and film
editing). We spent a day at University of North Carolina,
Wilmington, University of South Carolina, Columbia and University of North
Carolina, Winston-Salem.
We have already been to Ball State and need to do a review of Virginia
Commonwealth.
We drove 1500-miles and spent the difference of our time at Myrtle Beach,
Georgetown and
Columbia/Camden,
South Carolina at the beach and visiting my brother Jamie and his wife
Anna.
Traveling through the maritime strand, coastal plain and the fall-line
sandhills we took opportunities to
botanize wetlands at Huntington Beach and Goodale State Park and Brookgreen
Plantation, a historic
4,000-acre rice plantation, part of a former 45,000-acre low-country rice
industry.
