Yesterday afternoon I went up on the Sky Wheel on the boardwalk here in Myrtle Beach. It’s a huge ferris wheel with enclosed gondola-type cars. At the top you’re 200 feet in the air – so quite a view of the Grand Strand! Then junk food for dinner while I wandered on the boardwalk..

I drove out to Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms today on my way north to Myrtle Beach. Sullivan’s Island is where Dorthea Benton Frank’s books Sullivan’s Island and Return to Sullivan’s Island are set. And the last book setting that I will be visiting this trip is Isle of Palms where her book The Isle of Palms is.
