Good morning Thom. We're 2 hours from Columbia in Beaufort, the very southern tip of the state. They call this the low country for a good reason. :-)

Welcome from Michigan

Not sure how you can take the humidity down there, but then again weather is screwy. I don't know I can take the humidity up here. My wife and I call some days up here in Vermont "Columbia Days".

Stay cool!

Definitely need more Kilts! I'm passing out the business cards I receive in my orders from Rocky at USAKilts when people ask my about the Kilt. I have more friends now than ever it seems. At least I appear to be more approachable to people.

Yeah Thom, it's hot as crap down here! LOL

We've decided when Eric retires from the FD we're going back to the mountains.

That’s what we Cape people say about Durban, in Natal. It gets very humid there, and is pretty darned hot, even (most of the time) in winter.
But there are plenty of folks who live there quite happily.
Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike;

Our summer has barely begun up here and we had a bit of a chill and my wife was all about getting a fire going in the stove! I do like the heat, but heat relief would be a blessing and go hand in hand
