Hilton Head Island

Hilton Head is such a fun place to visit. We were there in March on business for a conference and flew into Charleston, South Carolina and drove south about 100 miles, it was a really interesting drive. It was March and a welcome escape from the snow and cold up north. The weather was warm and the air smelled like the salty sea with the intermingling of pines, Hilton Head has a lot of pine trees.

We played a little golf and hung out at the pool and then took some walks on the beach. The conference was a blast, probably because of the area, it was just like going to the Caribbean except we did not need to take a long flight and we did not need our passports.

While we were there we ate out at some fantastic restaurants, it was my birthday so we all went to dinner to celebrate, on the company credit card of course. I plan to go back sometime for a vacation and spend more time exploring the area and the history but my first taste of Hilton Head was just great.
