HoarfrostHubb Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 They take people on adventures for big $$$. They also get endorsements from various action sports companies. Eddie Bauer is backing them right now. They've been at it for over a decade now. Livin' the life. Very cool video. I did not know the paraglider/kiteboard things had inflatable parts. There is lots of big money out there and to the people who figure out how to wrest it from the fat cats, kudos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like building their homes.lol I prefer having a base camp to stage from rather than the total vagabond lifestyle. Still, I love adventure and they get it in big doses.

Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 My favorite watering hole back home, the Pawleys is tavern, know as the PIT, a low key low country tradition. Mostly locals, best crab dip and crab cakes I have ever had, live music at night, thousands of tiny white lights in the live and spanish oaks at night that light up the spanish moss. Relaxing would be an understatement, Ginxy would love this place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Entrance to Caledonia, one of the most famous golf courses in the states, low country living at its best, backs up on the intercoastal waterway, once prized as a rice plantation in revolutionary days.

Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 For Pete, not a bad place to tee it up, in the background rice fields and the intercoastal waterway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Pete, we should plan a trip to sc for golf, actually have a free place to stay on the ocean. Tidewater, a true gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Last pic for the golfers Pete, Will and Cheetah, a course I played many many times, back nine on the tidal marsh is just breathtaking, Pawleys Plantation, a Jack Nicklaus gem......double greens and all baby!

Mr Torchey Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 lol, Golf porn. Looks killer. So much to do, so little time. Pete, my Dad has a place in Litchfield right on the beach, 3 miles from pawleys plantation, 1.5 from Caledonia, 1 mile from True Blue, (norman course) there are so many classics right there. The accomodations are free, all we pay for is golf and food and an occasional beer. Its a wonderful place. We should really try and get a little golf outing in Jan or Feb down there, at that time weather can be 50 or 70, absolutely perfect for golf.

I just played a 3 day member guest at York GC which is on a tidal river in a pretty nice setting. Old Ross, fun course. Couldn't buy a putt in 3 days but haven't hit it better. Tough slog hitting it inside 15ft all weekend and not make much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
