Shortly, I’ll be headed down to Greenville, South Carolina to visit family.  Bob Jones University, where George Bush announced he was running for President way back when, is located therein.  Yes, the belly of the beast.

Greenville is a beautiful town and has a lot going on (it’s comparable in size to Scranton, but seems to have a more vibrant arts community).  My cousin Maureen is an actress in a comedy troupe and I’ll be going to see their most recent play, Sanford in Love, which parodies Mark Sanford, SC’s governor, who literally disappeared from the Governor’s mansion for days.  Supposedly, he was hiking the Appalachian Trail, but really he was cheating on his wife with his Argentinean mistress.  I’m sure I’ll enjoy the play.

The bad news is you won’t see me here for a little while.  I’ll check back and if I have time I’ll make my phone calls and write about relevant news, but don’t expect much for the next week.

I’ll miss you all!
