Google defines “Indian Summer” as a “period of unusually dry, warm weather occurring in late autumn…” well, I don’t know if this recent climate qualifies as an “Indian Summer” or not because there’s nothing unusual about beautiful weather with temperatures topping out in the 70’s and crystal clear skies around here in late autumn.  In […]

If peace and serenity had a fragrance, they would smell like a fall day on Lake Keowee. Days like these…cool in the morning with crystal clear views out to the mountains and a few wisps of clouds in the azure sky, simply awe inspiring! To top it off, this morning we had the good fortune […]

Not sure what it’s going to be like over the next couple of days in your neck of the woods, but for the Lake Keowee area the animals are already lining up two by two. Think they know something we don’t? I’m guessing rain, and lot’s of it. It’s not particularly unusual for this time […]

That’s the standard ensemble for the crowd around Lake Keowee and Lake Jocassee as of late. Things start out cool then it warms up to a perfect high 60’s-low 70’s around 11:00 am – time to lose the pull over and jump headlong into another fantastic fall day on and around Lake Keowee and Lake Jocassee.

We’re starting to see it, the first inklings of fall as the yellow and oranges are beginning to appear with the bright reds and deep purples not far behind. I’m talking about leaves people! The vistas on Lake Keowee over the coming months are going to be absolute breathtaking! It’s a great time of year […]

Sunny and temperatures in the 80’s: that’s what we are looking at for today and the next few days and man am I ready for some cooler temperatures! For those of you residing in more northerly climes, 80’s is approximately  20 degrees cooler than what it’s been for the last 2 months! I was fortunate […]

No, not the 1950’s, Chachi, the temperature! I had the opportunity this past weekend to float in Lake Keowee for several hours with several of my Kappa Sigma fraternity brothers. Sure was relaxing, especially compared to sitting in what felt like a dutch oven Saturday afternoon in Clemson’s Death Valley football stadium. As I said […]

The good news is we don’t have to! This past week has been one of cooler morning temperatures and school for the kiddoes! The fact that I’m not going to mention football season has absolutely nothing to with the fact that both major in-state universities got lunch boxed in their opening games this weekend. The […]

Can you feel it? Of course you need to be here around South Carolina’s Lake Keowee and Jocassee to understand what I’m talking about, but can you feel the cool air in the evenings and in the morning when you are headed out? Feels like football, changing leaves and maybe even long pants!   Over the […]

Summer is officially a memory. I dropped my kids of at school this morning and the temperature is a notch below sweltering. That’s the formula around here; kids in school + bearable heat = summer is over. The good news is that football season IS HERE! For those of you not from the South, football (the college […]
