Hilton Head Island Lighthouse
Yesterday, Kacie's birthday, Nancy and I went to the south end of the island and ate at a restaurant that is next to the lighthouse in Harbortown. We like going here because I had scattered Kacie's ashes at the top of this lighthouse and it is orangish reddish brown. So, when we finished our meal we went outside and were standing in the shade formed by this large structure when a young hispanic girl and an older man walked up to us. I had worked with the young girl but didn't recognize the older man. I talked with her for a while and then started a conversation with the man. He told us that he had traveled extensively all over the United States. He was a truck driver and had visited 48 states. I asked him what was the most beautiful place he had ever seen and would like to live and he looked at us with a big smile and said "San Antonio, Texas."

wow, i have seen better places but i guess it's just all about one's own personality and preference. San Antonio is not too bad a place to live. Kacie sure hated it, thats for sure. I think a lot of it had to do with her missing friends and family, not finding a job, us being poor, etc. etc. etc....Most people here love it though. We don't have very good seasons though.....seems like it jumps from really hot summer to really cold winter.
that is a funny story. i have an old thrift shop shirt i bought (before Kacie even moved to San Antonio) that says San Antonio and has a Parrot on it wearing a sombrero and confetti is in the air. This was one of Kacie's favorite shirts that I owned.
