An Interstate Highway, I-73, will run from the northern border of Michigan (Hwy. 127) through Ohio (Hwy. 23) near the border of Kentucky and West Virginia (Hwy. 220) through North Carolina and bringing visitors to South Carolina (Hwy. 22 and Hwy. 501) which is the center of Myrtle Beach.

Don't quote me but it seems that each year just before some great Spring weather, flocks of Robins are there pecking in the grass.  They arrived in North Myrtle Beach just after our dusting of snow melted and this morning I saw about twenty-five of them in my back yard. 

Where we used to live in Maryland each year Spring weather got shorter and shorter.  Some years we went directly from Winter to Summer. One of my favorite things about Myrtle Beach is Spring weather which lasts for several months. 

Yesterday I posted a picture of it snowing in North Myrtle Beach.  The picture was there hours later but today I got an email there was no picture so I redid the image.  Strange .....

We have a Winter Weather Advisory until 10 PM Tuesday.  It's the first time I've heard those words during the past six years.

Burrr..  Stay warm and safe then plan your trip to Myrtle Beach for the Marathon that takes place February 12 - 15.  There will be a Full Marathon of 26 miles, Half-Marathon, 5 K Race, Children's Fun Run, and Bicycle Ride. 

I saw an ad on a site that offered a free sample of a supplement made from Acai Berry.  You just had to pay postage.  I'm always careful when ordering online and I read the ad and made copies of everything but they first charged just postage then they started charging my credit card $94.57 under different company names for the past two months and this month in addition to the $94.57 charge under a totally new company name they charged an additional $84.79 also under another name.  The phone numbers listed on my charge statement were the same but it was always busy so I had to turn it over to the credit card company's fraud department.  A lot of trouble for a free sample and the other day I found the same supplement at a local GNC for about $11.00.
