Picture escaping land-locked Knoxville and spending time with the exhilarating, exciting, mesmerizing and revitalizing ocean ... then add to that scene your best friend who also is exhilarating, exciting, mesmerizing and revitalizing :) I'm describing Folly Beach and my best friend, William (Sandy). So that's why I'm using the word "bliss" in this post's title. We had a memorable and wonderful time and I've put up several Folly pictures (please scroll all the way down).
We are pictured at Loggerheads Beach Grill, a great place to dine, hear awesome music, and enjoy the comfortable and friendly (even dog-friendly) atmosphere.
Ralph (Sandy named him) is a friendly fellow (or maybe even a lady bird), and a member of one of the local and as yet unidentified bird species there. Very vocal and friendly, these birds seemed somewhat like crows, ravens, and starlings, and yet a breed apart.
The picture of the sunset shows, in the lower left-hand corner, a surfer who was there the entire day.
It was very hard to leave that wonderful place (the Tides Hotel is very accommodating, comfortable, and nice and all rooms are oceanfront). Sweet memories, very sweet memories.

I have since learned that Ralph is what is called a Rusty Blackbird. Checked it out the other day. Really cool birds :)
Folly Beach is the place to be !! :)
My sister recently moved up to the Charleston area (John's Island)... not far from Folly Beach. She's painted the famous Folly Boat a few times over the years. :-)
