Lunch at The Barn

Tasha and I decided to rent  a beach house on Sullivan’s Island for an entire month. In December! Happy Holidays to us.

I worried about Hugh adjusting to a new house, especially during his birthday and Christmas. But as usual, I worried for nothing. He’s  called it, “my beach house” from Day 1, and settled right into our two bedroom, 1 bath cottage built in the 1800s with the moniker, “The Barn.”

Hugh's quiet beach

All you summertime fans of the beach, I’ll leave you your sticky air, your buzzing evening mosquitoes, your packed restaurants and crowded sand. I’ll take December with its peaceful isolation, quiet sunrises and lazy evening breezes on the front porch anytime.
