Walked the north end of Pawleys the other morning, observed the tracks of a sea turtle who had come ashore during the night, laid her eggs, and went back to sea. Members of the local Logger Head Turtle Watch group, were on site to move the nest if need be above the high tide mark. A pod of doplhins kept me company as I walked back. This is what it is all about. Get down here and chase your dream while the buyers market is in effect!

The Federal Reserve's Beige Book report said the 5th district's economic activity was sluggish; this district includes North & South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, D.C, and a significant portion of West Virginia.

As we all know the real estate and retail markets are slow but the report claimed that manufacturing and agriculture where looking fairly strong as the service industry remained stable to some growth except for financial services due to consumers' hesitance about the future.

The manufacturing industry showed positive results due to the fact that our products have become cheaper to foreign countries. The decline of our dollar has prompted countries to import more of our products increasing their demand abroad. Unfortunately this is not the case domestically; buyers have tightened their pockets and may possibly continue to do so with gas prices nearing and exceeding $4 a gallon.

Morgan Park in Georgetown, S.C. consists of 10 acres, 70% of which is high ground and the remaining 30% is marshlands. Morgan Park is adjacent to the 53 acre East Bay Park that currently accommodates recreational fields and a boat ramp not to mention that it is a gorgeous waterfront location. Since the city announced that the recreational facilities will be moved and the boat ramp will be made obsolete by the new Campbell Marine Complex on the Sampit River, many people are wondering how the land will be used? Although Morgan Park can never be sold by the city, East Bay Park could be sold.

What happens to the land at East Bay Park will be decided by City Council after they hear input from the public and the Keep Georgetown Beautiful Committee. The accessibility and landscape of Morgan Park will largely depend on what happens to its larger neighbor, East Bay Park.
