During the "quiet season", the river, located on the flip side of the Grand Strand, is one of my favorite local escapes. Offering hard-to-find solitude, it has a quiet, enduring dignity with a beauty all its own.
Muonic - The lighting sucked, but see if any of these ripple up a light breeze thru the cobwebs in the corners of your mind. Your pics disappeared, so I was working from memory, never a good thing. There's a nice small-boat ramp now where the road ends at the creek, just refurbished a couple years ago, but it still gets muddy at low tide. Headed the other direction, the road takes you straight to the beach.
Sorry about my pictures disappearing, but I'm constantly rearranging stuff on my Pbase site.
The road looks exactly as I remember it, and so does the creek. Back in the day, there wasn't a "ramp" per se, at the end of the road. Basically, the pavement ended, and the mud just sloped down into the water. Lots of fiddler crabs around that area, back then. I don't remember that line of "rocks", which looks like it forms a boundary line of some sort.
The cottage in your picture looks very similar. But I thought the house we actually stayed in, was the next to the last house, on that road. I must be wrong about that (see the edit note).
This creek in this picture looks very similar to yours, but the houses in the background sure have changed.
Thanks for taking the time to take and post these images. It does bring back some memories. It's great to see it in color again, and not just the old B&W snapshots I have.
EDIT: OK, I guess my memory is not that great, after all. I just found this listing, and I know Bolick is the correct name of the people who owned the cottage we stayed in. So that is where we stayed.
A little difficult to make out in the photo, but while on Pawleys Island, I spotted one of the many tornadoes that made its way across the Carolinas earlier today.
