Even though we now have a "heat wave" going on, with temps in the mid-30s (hey, we went from Christmas Eve to two days ago where it never got above freezing), I'm not ready to clear the snow off the deck and catch some rays.
However, I know where I'd like to be as I sit here listening to Ray Scott's Beach Music Top 40 Countdown on the Surf, 94.7 FM out of North Myrtle Beach, SC. They are having the Mid Winter SOS Party there this weekend with lots of bands, shagging (the dance), and drinking along Ocean Boulevard and Ocean Drive. Lots of Beach Music bands and deejays in town.
About fifty miles away, the 145th anniversary of the fall of Confederate Fort Fisher is also being observed near Wilmington, NC. This fort is what got me interested in history and particularly Fort Fisher. All sorts of things are going on there as well.
Oh well, it would be hard to be in two places at the same time, plus, we are considering going out to the Mississippi River for our annual bald eagle watching trip.
Listening to the Beach music and writing about Fort Fisher in my Civil War Blog will have to suffice.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
