Terrrible Bear

Buster is not only late coming home from the New Years party at Land Shark, he also has the memory stick with the current photos.  Honestly, what does one do with such a mischievious polar bear.  Does anyone have a good bear recipe?

We were in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for New Years, where we welcomed 2012 at Jimmy Buffett's Land Shark Bar and Grill on the beach.  Good fun, plenty of yummy snacks and even cake (not as good as Phil's) and a friendly crowd.  Best of all, it was warm.  Jan 31 was about 70 F (21 C), so it was great to be out and walking around town and on the beach.

Jan 1 we departed South Carolina, heading north again.  We visited Norfolk, VA, where the largest naval base in the world is located.  Being a public holiday we were unable to tour the base, however, we saw all the war ships moored and that is quite a remarkable sight.  We went to a naval museum and got to look around on the Battleship USS Wisconsin.  Somewhere, with Buster, there are photos.

Next we visited Williamsburg, VA, where the whole town is sort of a living museum. 

We next went up to Northern Virginia, where it was actually snowing as we arrived!  The snow didn't last long, but it was pretty cold. 

I'm hoping Buster and the photos turn up soon.
