Tropical Storm Hanna came ashore at about 3:30am Saturday, right over my house in Little River.  The winds were coming out of the northeast, then died down somewhat, and then half an hour later, began blowing from the opposite direction.

By 10am the sun was out and it was a beautiful day!

We on the Grand Strand are fortunate to have escaped any major damage. There were plenty of tree limbs down and some minor beach erosion, but no reports of significant damage to Myrtle Beach real estate.

The media coverage chased a lot of tourists away in fear, but many folks who were planning on arriving today simply delayed their arrival a day, and we expect normal traffic this week.

For those of you who own property here and live elsewhere, we know that it can be emotionally trying, wondering what’s really going on, and not knowing if your property suffered damage.  If we may be of service in this regard, please don’t hesitate to be in touch.

But just so there’s no question - Myrtle Beach is A-OK, and business is back to normal.
