mid-week round-up

We used to go to Myrtle Beach a lot when I was a young kid/teenager and besides hang out on the beach, the best thing to do was go to mini golf, of course! ha! That brings back great memories.

I want to read all the 22 books, how am I supposed to do this? I would love to visit Myrtle beach by the way, lately I am dreaming of visiting US. Happy weekend Beth!
