Last weekend Susan and her girlfriends had a "girls weekend" planned. Hurricane Irma adjusted their plans a bit. They were going to spend the weekend at a house in Folly Beach, unfortunately that house was under water. Just as we were leaving Texas the plan changed. They decided to help one of the friends clean up a bunch of downed limbs from Irma on their property in SC. I was going to be loading stuff from Susan's barn in Atlanta to bring back to Texas while the girls had their weekend. With the change of plans I got invited instead!
The property is in what is known as ACE Basin in South Carolina. ACE Basin is the basin of the Ashepoo, Combahee and Edisto rivers, one of the largest undeveloped estuaries along the Atlantic Coast of the United States according to Wikipedia. This particular property is special because parts of the movie Forrest Gump were filmed there. In fact the pecan grove in front of Forrest's house is where we spent the weekend picking up and burning downed limbs.
Run Forrest, Run! |

We still had a bunch of stuff we wanted to bring back from Atlanta so we spent Sunday evening and Monday morning loading up the trailer with "stuff". Thanks to Mark for helping us get the wood stove loaded.
Let me tell you a story about a man named Jed... |
