It’s time to start planning to get out on Lake Keowee and Jocassee (actually, we’re well past the planning stages but don’t panic, we’ve got you covered!). The temperatures will reach into the 70’s today and the skies are shockingly crystal clear. I’m just dying to ride around on the boat, in fact I think […]

Going to be in the 70’s this week. When you walk outside around Lake Keowee you can hear the birds singing as if it is already springtime. When you look at the trees you see the buds of new leaves and when you look at the golf courses you can see the stop-motion transformation from […]

I took the kids for a drive around the area Sunday morning. It’s always amazing to me just how much beauty is around Lake Keowee. With the advent of the spring-like weather we decided to go up to Sassafras Mountain (the highest point in SC) because from there we could see over all of Lake Jocassee […]

As predicted, the temperatures climbed up into the high 60’s this past weekend and although it was a bit overcast, there was the palpating ambience of spring in our midst. The song birds felt it and they were letting us know it, too. There was the sense that the leaves, grass and flowers, any and […]

After a few blustery cold days, a winter fake-out if you will, we’ve hit our stride weather-wise with an absolutely gorgeous day and an incredible 70 degree weekend well on the way. Spring will be here before we know it (how much you wanna bet it’ll be here in 3 days???) and with spring comes […]

Yep, that’s right. Baseball season will soon be upon us and we Clemson fans are really excited to see where the new coach takes the team this season and for the years to come. But we’d better not be so quick to write off basketball just yet as both our Tigers and the Gamecocks have […]

Punxsutawney Phil says, “Early spring!” and we’ll take it! The “Blizzard of the Century of 2016” last week was enough for us. I say bring on the shorts, flip flops, sunscreen, afternoon Lake Keowee cruises and cool beverages. Today it’s a bit overcast but the temperatures are in the 50’s. Last night I was even […]

Yep, and a good bit of it, especially for our neck o’ the woods. Up here around Lake Keowee we were blessed with 8-10 inches, nothing like Washington, D.C. or New York City but plenty to give the kids a day and a half off of school. The snow days bracketed the weekend which made […]

It’s finally here. Winter. And we thought we might escape this year with just a prolonged fall. But just go outside for a bit and you’ll quickly see that nice little windbreaker no longer does the trick around Lake Keowee. The good news is the skies are crystal clear affording the most incredibly beautiful views. […]

I guess we’ll be saving that victory stogie for one more year. Alabama played a great game and there is no shame losing to the likes of that crowd so unless you’re a Tide fan (or a Carolina fan that just likes to see Clemson lose), it was a tough loss for our Tigers, they […]
