New Years Sail Followup


Well, I have finally managed to post some more videos. I'm not done yet, but it's a start. The first 3 in the series are all about leaving port, sailing over to S. Barts, the undocumented FLW house at Columbiana, then heading on over to Gustavia harbor, St. Barts for New Years eve.

The last 2 are at the end of the trip. All that's missing are the middle video, especially "The Kripendorf Tribe Battle the Mud People."

Everything is posted over at http://digitalshores.net. Just click on the New Years Sail hyperlink when you get there. That should work.

And feel free to comment on this blog, or over at YouTube, where these videos actually reside. Search on the tag beachmiser. You should find them, I guess.

Also, as part of my ongoing series on Internet Marketing, I have just posted a new entry at my Shagmiser Blog, all about Affiliate URL Cloaking.

WOW! Where Have We Been?


It's been over 3 weeks since I last posted. That's too long. But I do have an excuse, of sorts. We just got back from a solid week cruise over the New Years Holiday, in a 44 foot catamaran no less. Flew down to St. Maarten, launched our little yacht over to St. Barts for New Years eve, then over to the French side of St. Maarten for a couple of stops, on to Anguilla, then back to Simpson Bay, St. Maarten. What a week.

I don't have time right now to fill you in with all the details. But I will do so, in a post-by-post posting over the next few days. I just might include some short videos. Cool, huh? So put this blog on your RSS reader so you'll be notified when I do post something new, then lean forward to read all about our exciting adventures through the waters of the Caribbean.

Are You Potentially Correct?




I'm Not! I'm not even partially correct. But we are wanting to wish everyone of our friends and family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. This marks our first full year in North Myrtle Beach (NMB), and our second Holiday Season. We've got more lights out, both front and back this year, and new neighbors who also believe in doing cools lights and really getting into the season. That makes our 3 houses really light up at night. See the previous post for a short video I made to see what it is I'm talking about.



This has been an amazing year, and Sally and I are going to top it all off by joining 2 of my sibs (Rockin' Robin and the Amazing Mel) and their SO's (Kooky Kathie and Jersey Joltin' Joe) for an "over New Years" sailing trip around St. Maarten, Anquilla, and St. Barts. So get ready for a raft of more videos and pictures when we get back. While you're suffering crappy weather and jalapeno hangovers, we'll be diving the deep, doing our Jimmy Buffet thang on a catamaran built for 8.
Added Extra - Christmas Book Give-Away - from the Shagmiser. Go over to my Shagmiser Site, click on the Christmas Book, and you'll get a couple of free Christmas E-Book Download, just in time for kids and Christmas and I don't know what all.
OK - OK. One more thing. NMB has just opened a brand new Thai restaraunt, and it is very good. Sally, Susan & I just had lunch there. It's called Thai Seasonings, and I highly recommend it, especially if you like Thai food. It's around 9th or 10th Ave South on Highway 17 in NMB.

That's it for now, so TTFN, and We'll Talk Again ....................

See the Lights Along 24th Ave South in NMB

I just did a walk about with the little handheld vidcam on our little street here in North Myrtle Beach. I wanted to capture the holiday festive lights several of us have put out this season. There's also a surprise cameo appearance by our very own Grandma Hale (Mom to me).


Wasn't that simply inspiring. I want to thank our neighboors for trying SOOOOOOO hard to catch up with our lighted holiday spirit, but class will out don't you know. When you get the chance (and I know you will), drop GH a note to wish her Happy Holidays.

If you'd like to see a floating light show, head on over to my Digital Shores.Net site and click on Beach Videos. I shot video of the NMB, Little River Annual Christmas Boat Regatta Parade on the Intercoastal Waterway about a week ago. Now those are some lights.

Found a great new casual place to hang for lunch, happy hour, or dinner. It's called Goober's 52 on Restaraunt Row, right next to Chestnut Hill. It's brand new and well worth checking out. Sally tried the Lobster Rueben and it was really good. They used real lobster. The Crispy O's are TDF. It's got a beach party laid back theme in keeping with the casual laid back beach style. Their sound system plays Zydeco, but what do they know. When you go, tell them the Beachmiser sent you. It won't do you any good, but it will be interesting to see their reaction.

TTFN - and Happy Holidays. We'll Talk Again.
