Winter and all other seasons are not like my hometown in Pennsylvania, and up North.
The Carolina's are special; they are God's gift to Mother Earth and to everyone who lives here.
I cannot describe the beauty of the tall pine trees; they are the tallest I have ever seen. The Alleghenies have lovely trees, but not quite like in South Carolina.
The people are warm and laid back, and do not rush and anxious like up North. It took me awhile to slow down a bit, but I am still programed from the North to hurry and be impatient. There are some biased opinions of "Yankees", as we are called, but the majority of the people here do appreciate the natives of the North, West and East. Most people basically accept others as human beings and not Confederates or Yankees. There are many cultures that are so interesting.
The Palmetto Trees are awesome, and the Pansies grow in winter and all year round. They never freeze by the frigid temperatures. The people's lawns are so lovely with the various flowers. The huge Magnolia Blossoms are incredibly stunning with beauty! In the spring, the Azaleas bushes bloom with pinks, fuschias, reds and whites. Such loveliness to behold, like Paradise! The Crepe Myrtles(trees), are like Lilacs up North and the purple Wisteria flowers hang down on their tree like the Wheeping Willow.
The Shag is the dance here, and the people are full of life and love. The sky seems bigger to me and in the hot, summer months the stars are so clearly seen in the Southern Sky!
There are great employment opportunities, and once someone knows you, they become your friend for life.
