Nothing says summer to me like the Boardwalk pool deck at Wild Dunes. The sandy colors of the deck and the rainbow of pastels from the Charleston single homes lining the boardwalk are the perfect backdrop for a relaxing day at the pool.

5506 Skybar is the highest bar east of the Rockies, perched atop Beech Mountain Resort. The bar is open in the winter for ski season and the summer for mountain biking season.
Today is closing day for the 2017 winter season on Beech Mountain but in two months, everything will be open for the summer festivities!
Come on up to Beech Mountain this summer for mountain disc golf, mountain biking and mile high yoga on the deck of 5506 Skybar!
And of course, don't forget to book your stay at Slopeside, our mountain chalet on Beech Mountain!
The forecast this week in Charlotte is cold and rainy... here's a little throwback to the summer to warm things up. This is the fire pit at the Villages at Wild Dunes, captured from our balcony.

It's been a warm week in the Carolinas and it's got me thinking about summer. I took this photo of Wild Dunes Yacht Harbor on Isle of Palms last summer and I'm ready to go back! If you have a yacht in the harbor and want to go out on the water for some sweet shots of her at sea, let me know!

The bombardment and subsequent surrender of Fort Sumter marked the start of the American Civil War. It's hard to imagine this peaceful place was home to the beginning of one of the darkest chapters in our history.

Located in Charleston Harbor, Fort Sumter is one of the most important and well-known forts in American history. Only accessible by boat, visiting is like taking a step back through time. I took off across the channel near Fort Moultrie on Sullivans Island and covered the mile or so by air, zipping past all of the boats entering the harbor. It's not quite the same as stepping foot on the hallowed ground that is Fort Sumter but I gained a different perspective and was able to do the round trip in 15 minutes, rather than the usual half-day boat excursion.

Now that it's getting colder out, I find myself wishing for the carefree days of summer... like the day I spent following boats around Charleston Harbor.

Here's another image from the inaugural flight of my DJI Phantom 3 Professional drone. We headed to beautiful Secrets Playa Mujeres for an early kick-off to summer and I wanted to capture the spectacular pool from a different perspective.
I'm somewhere down there, relaxing on a lounge chair.

We took the dual-hulled Delphinus out to Capers Island on a typically beautiful Charleston summer evening to explore Boneyard Beach and chase the dolphins. We saw the Delphinus coming home to port at sunset a few nights later just as we were finishing dinner so I fired up the drone and took some photos of the crew who graciously hosted us earlier in the week. Big props to the ship and crew for making so many special memories for families every single night of the week!
