This is the best time of year to book  golf packages Myrtle Beach and get away for a long weekend of swimming and golf in my favorite family beach destination on the the East Coast.

September and October are both great months to go to the beach. The weather is still warm during the day and the water temperature of the Atlantic is still warm enough for swimming.

Go to www.myrtlebeachseasideresorts.com to check for the best rates and make sure you wave if you see me there.

I used to see peacocks when we went to Florida on vacation. They are all over Florida, in the wild and in nature parks. I have never seen an all white peacock yet. I think it is a beautiful bird and would love to see one.

I’ve always loved watching dramas and reality television because of how exciting they are. There is an adrenaline rush when someone gets voted out of American Idol. Since Ellen Degeneres became a judge on Americal Idol, I decided to check out her talk show on satellite TV packages in California I got.

Let me tell you, I have never been interested in any talk show before. Like I said, I was only checking it out because of my love for American Idol. Ellen’s show is a classic! She always has a smile on her face and she is ready to make the audience laugh with her wit and dance moves.

It seems like all of her guests are really interesting people. Sometimes the AI contestants that have been voted off even come onto the show. Those are some of my favorite episodes. It’s kind of funny that The Ellen Degeneres show is now one of my favorite shows of all time. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

Now that I watch her talk show, I sometimes tune in to other talk shows to see if they are as exciting and inviting. I still haven’t found one that I consider on par to her show, but there are some that are decent enough.

Always be on the lookout for newer shows that you might not think are interesting. Some can be really great!

I love going to sporting events, even though I’m not really active in very many. I do however enjoy playing a game of golf every now and then. My folks brought us up playing golf and I’m grateful for that. It is a nice easy going game that just about anyone can play and they have golf courses and tee times just about everywhere.

My folks just got back from their annual Myrtle Beach vacation last week. They wanted me to come but I couldn’t really take the time off of work and I all ready have a long weekend planned for the last part of September. My mom was telling me last night that they had a good time, the weather was a bit wacky but all in all it was a success. My dad found a website at www.48hourteetimes.com that they had to utilized during their stay in Myrtle Beach. They are a full service hospitality group that helps people with their accommodations and their 48 hour tee times. Since so many people are flocking to Myrtle Beach S.C. this year due to BP ruining so many of the other beaches on the east coast a lot of the hotels and golf courses have been slammed with customers that need some help finding their way around and finding what is available and for who.

I’m glad that my folks are computer literate. Many people their age are a bit timid when it comes to maneuvering around on the Internet, but they have mastered it quite well and use it to their best advantage when possible. And I’m glad that they are spontaneous, that must be where I got it from, a double dose of it, to be sure.

I’ve checked out the website of http://avistaresort.com and I have to say that I would highly consider staying at their first class Myrtle Beach hotel. They have good golf packages to offer and the good lord knows I love playing a good round of golf. And to play golf near the beach would just be awesome. My parents got me started playing golf at the local Putt Putt, when Putt Putt was still in business. And then we started playing real games and the big people’s golf courses and I was hooked forever.

Maybe by next summer I’ll have accumulated enough vacation time and I can save up a few bucks and check out Myrtle Beach for myself. That’s something to work on.

To say that my aunt likes the movie “Wizard of Oz” would be a gross understatement. She’s actually obsessed and will do anything to buy items in any way related to the movie.

That makes it the easiest, yet the hardest task to buy presents for her birthday, which just happens to be soon. She has almost every kind of memorabilia that exists and that’s what people know to buy her for gifts. Some of her collections include all kinds of figurines, snow globes, afghans and T-shirts. Most of it is in the living room and it’s crazy to see how she’s positioned all of it in there perfectly. It almost makes you afraid to sit down or touch anything.

So after I got my new satellite internet packages I decided to just do my entire gift hunt online instead of going to the mall like I have in the past. I found a set of coasters and I knew she didn’t have movie-themed coasters so I bought them on wildblue internet and had them shipped to my house.
