Summer, 2002 Homey's Salt Marsh Sweat Box

The last required cross country flight was a long one, over 500 miles round trip. I wanted to go to Jacksonville to see family, or Destin, to see some friends, but for weeks the weather wouldn't cooperate. So I ended up going to Georgetown, SC of all places. I still got to see palm trees , the ocean, salt marshes, cypress swamps, and carniverous plants. I'm easily entertained.

July 15, 2002 - Somewhere over the Georgia side of Clarks Hill Lake, recently renamed Strom Thurmond lake!
July 15, 2002 - You know it's hot when Fresca actually tastes good!
July 15, 2002 - My backseat travelling companion, Kaytee, the "Little Playmate", better known as the party cooler.
July 15, 2002 - Even the most mundane things look purdee up here. This is I-95 crossing Lake Marion in South Carolina
July 15, 2002 - "Beach" houses on Lake Marion
July 15, 2002 - Canal somewhere near St. Stephen, SC. Ain't these shapes and colors purdee?
July 15, 2002 - Here's my "ride" in Georgetown, SC with the palm trees and swampy salt air. There were pitcher plants growing in the ditches along the taxiways. Too cool!
July 15, 2002 - Salt marshes near Georgetown
July 15, 2002 - This was taken by accident but I like the way Beatle Paul is waving from under the shoulder belt
July 15, 2002 - Orangeburg, SC - This just looks cool. When I was in Shawn Mullins' band, we used to stay at the hotel to the left. He had even written a song called "Orangeburg" but soon realized the title was about as evocative as naming a song "Newark" or "Gary, Indiana"
August 8, 2002 - PDK - The thermometer in the plane reads 120 degrees today!
August 13, 2002 - Here's another lovely new subdivision in the Atlanta suburbs. From up here it looks like some sort of bacterial culture eating away at the landscape.
August 16, 2002 - There go the street where I stay
September 12, 2002 - Rock Eagle Indian mound near Eatonton, GA.
