Some Photos From Our Just-Ended Myrtle Beach Trip!

October 9, 2020 By Jeff 4 Comments

I’m going to post some photos here, over the next couple o’ days, of our just-ended trip to Myrtle Beach. And, by the way, I’d rate the vacation a big fat A. Two days were a little cool and rainy, and that’s the only reason I didn’t go with A+. A fantastic trip! This is going to take me a while, so I’ll do it piecemeal. Please check back.

This is might be one of the best pictures I’ve ever taken. I don’t know, but I love it. It’s just my cell phone, with no filters or anything. The moon was crazy-bright the whole time we were there.

I took four shots of this sunset. The first two were orange, and the second two were pink. Just minutes apart. I like this one too, but all I had to do was point and click.

This one’s a little blurry, but I like the blur. I took it late at night from our balcony: a police SUV cruising the beach. Unfortunately, a Myrtle Beach policeman was killed that same night, in the line of duty.

One of our must-visit restaurants in Myrtle Beach is Big Mike’s Soul Food. This time I opted for fried chicken, macaroni & cheese, collard greens, boiled cabbage, and cornbread. I was under pressure to order, and might’ve adjusted things slightly if I’d had more time to consider it. But everything was fantastic, as usual.

A generic beach shot, taken from Springmaid Pier, that I like. Low-tide, when Toney likes to go out for her five-mile walks. And when I stay back at the hotel and tell myself I should probably join her, but just look at my phone instead. This time I’m with her.

Just an old man wearing douchey sunglasses taking selfies on the beach.

One of the six or seven sea kitties living on the hotel property. This one is hoping we’ll “drop” some scrambled eggs during our breakfast. We slipped them some food every day, even though the signs said not to. They’re very skittish though, and won’t let you pet them or even get close.

Our hotel at night, taken from the beach. Our room was in the middle, fourth or fifth floor from the top.

    Nice pics. Sad about the officer. Like to hear about your chowing down experiences – hopefully that will be upcoming.

    That first photo is calendar/post card worthy! I’ve never been to Myrtle beach and now I really want to go. Great shots, Jeff..
