Coffee and Adventure

  Another hurricane season. The future of Imelda is carefully monitored by meterologist around the low country. The latest trends are [hinting] that this storm will slow down and not make landfall before pushing East out to sea. We experienced our first hurricane season last year. We no sooner moved to South Carolina - waiting for our new furniture and items on a commercial moving truck to arrive when Hurricane Debby came to visit.  She was an unwelcomed guest to say the least.

Hello and welcome to my [newest] blog. I've blogged before - that does not make me a professional writer blogger.  I guess you could say this new blog is for me to begin sharing my favorites. Coffee and adventures.  I'm married to a great guy. You'll find out more about him - but for now just trust me - he's pretty great!   We are starting this next chapter in our lives [with coffee] traveling to beautiful places in the low country, visiting new coffee joints and beaches.   So until I get my next post written - enjoy a cup of coffee and take an adventure.  Smiles, Lis
