Myrtle Beach 2009






We liked Myrtle Beach so much that we decided we would go there again. We visited Ocean Lakes in Myrtle Beach 3 years ago. It's one of the biggest parks in the country and has won many awards (see awards photo). Joni is shown sitting on the beach with her umbrella.






There are many organized events activities going on, especially for kids. We were there to enjoy the beach. Joni just can't get enough of the beach.


Legends in Concert was performing at Myrtle Beach. They were great. If you didn't know better, you'd think you were looking at the authentic celebrity. We saw Elvis, The Blues Brothers, Louis Armstrong, Roy Orbison and Reba.



The Dolly Parton Dixie Stampede was very entertaining. It's a diner show. AND you have to eat without utensils. The menu consisted of soup, chicken, corn on the cob, baked potato and pastry for desert. A hand wipe was "served" after diner. We had a great time.





Delton did some repair work while we were there. The bubble over our shower (see Delton sitting on the roof with his feet dangling) developed a leak. Delton took the bubble off and resealed it. On our way to Myrtle Beach, the backup camera on our motorhome went out. Delton installed a new monitor, 2 side cameras, a new back camera AND redid all the wiring. What a guy!

And yes, the fires were burning while we were there. We were never in danger as the fires were in North Myrtle Beach. The park we stayed in is in the southern part of Myrtle Beach. We could smell the fire and see the smoke through.
After 2 1/2 weeks, we headed out and started our way back to Texas. Our plan is to take our time and make some stops along the way.
