Adventures in Folly

SUBTITLE: Pretty much the best beach vacation ever.
A week at the beach, a best friend since kindergarten, two adorable little girls, and a babysitter who happens to be a professional photographer... Yeah, it was pretty much the perfect beach vacation. So next year, when my buddy Megan calls me up and asks if I want to join her family at the beach again (hint, hint, Meggie...) we will most certainly be replying in the affirmative.

Folly Beach, by the way, just may be my new favorite beach location. Just minutes from downtown Charleston, which is one of the prettiest cities I've ever browsed for souvenirs and eaten ice cream in, this beach seems mostly undiscovered by the masses, and is years behind the more popular and therefore more crowded, more touristy beaches. Of course, having a 24-hour-a-day babysitter may have influenced my opinion a little, since it was so easy for us to get out for an adults-only double date one night and walk the quarter mile pier kid-free.

Thanks for a great trip, Almons! Abby had a great time with her buddy Neely, and we're already looking forward to next year!

  1. What a crazy small world Christina! I know the Almon family as well. I used to do gymnastics and Tripp was my coach.
