Beach Bound

  By the time anyone reads this entry I'll be on my way to the beach. I'm not sure of what form of transportation we will be taking but, on our way regardless. All this month, Vicki and I have been planning on riding our motorcycle to the beach for a three day weekend. It's 400 miles from where we live to South Carolina. It's something I've always wanted to do. Anyway, after checking the forecast for the weekend in South Carolina, they are calling for rain both days! Bummer! As bad as I want to ride I don't want to be stuck there with a bike and a rainy day. We still haven't made up our mind because the forecast keeps changing.
  There are a few pros to driving the car though. One is we can sleep in the Wal-Mart parking lot the first night for free. Wal-Mart is known for letting people stay one night in their parking lots, be it mostly RVs.  The second thing about driving is if we do we can leave Friday right after work and drive until dark. If we ride the bike we were going to wait until Saturday morning and leave so we could ride in the daytime. The third thing that's better by driving is that we can take our own beach chairs and umbrella. It cost's like $30 a day to rent them at the beach.
