Notes from Isle of Palms, SC

I almost wrote Isle of Psalms. My dormant Catholicism is stirring.

***

Got here on Saturday and we'll be staying for a week in this exorbitant/extravagant beach house (8 rooms, 9 bathrooms, swimming pool, a walk from the beach). Among the many benefits of this house--three AC units, TV/DVD in each room and a main room 52" projection TV, wireless internet, fireplace, wood floors, granite counter tops, stainless steel fridge, freezer unit, two ovens, two dishwashers . . .

I had hoped to get a little bit of writing done, but the ocean keeps calling.

L. is not so fond of the ocean, but he likes the pool.
