Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA



The day dawns at high tide in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  Named after the southern wax myrtle shrub which grew abundantly, this former home of the Waccamaw tribe now hosts millions of tourists annually to enjoy the mild winters or hot and humid summers.

Although the air temperature was in the mid seventies Fahrenheit, water temperature in the upper forties kept all but the children out of the water.

What is it about kids and birds?

Midday at low tide creates a hard-packed sand perfect for long walks.........

..........or any other beach pastime.

And as the sun dips toward the horizon, the light turns golden before the end of another day.

Meanwhile, there are still two feet of snow on the ground back in the Boston area.
