On Your Mark, Get Set, GOOOOOOOO!

Pawleys Island Kayak Race

In between looking at Pawleys Island Real Estate, you may want to either take a break and watch or maybe even participate in today’s local event.  So with that being said ….  On your mark … get set … GO!  The Pawleys Island Kayak Race is today, July 18th 3:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. at the North Causeway in Pawleys Island.  If you are interested in participating, you can go to Surf The Earth and sign up.

Did you know Kayaking is distinguished from canoeing by the sitting position of the paddler and the number of blades on the paddle? A kayak is defined by the International Canoe Federation (the world sanctioning body) as a boat where the paddler faces forward, legs in front, using a double-bladed paddle. Most kayaks have closed decks, although “sit-on-top” kayaks are growing in popularity, as are inflatable kayaks which come without decks but which have air chambers surrounding the boat. I personally prefer the “sit on top” kayaks and own a couple of them myself.

A Kayak race may not be your cup of tea, but I would suggest hopping in one with a waterproof camera and enjoy the creeks of Pawleys Island. There is so much natural beauty and wildlife.  I love watching all the birds fly across the grasses waiting for their perfect catch!  If you catch the tides just right, you can literally put in at a ramp while the tides are coming in, then float to one end of the island and then wait for the tides to turn and float all the way back.  Talk about an easy breezy afternoon.  It’s a great way to relax and to take a break from reality.

If you are looking to buy a home for sale in Pawleys Island or looking to List a home in Pawleys Island, please be sure to give the “Pawleys Gal” a call!  I’ve lived here for over half of my life and know it like the back of my hand.  I can and will help you find your dream home or sell the one that you are currently in.  Happy sailing and good luck in your adventures in Pawleys Island!

The "Island Life" ... It's For Me

Pawleys "Island" Lifestyle

It’s the “Island” kind of life for me and that’s how it will always be!  I try to get on here to blog about 2-3 times a week but I find a driving force from the beach that keeps calling my name!  Plus it doesn’t help that I have three children that absolutely LOVE to surf.  I practically get woken up every morning with my toes getting tickled by my children with them begging me to bring them to the beach to surf.  I try to explain to them that the tides aren’t right or there’s too much current but they think that I am just making up excuses not to go.  So, yep … they win and we get there, unload EVERYTHING only to find out that it’s low tide and way too windy.  ”Mom, I’m cold, can we go back home?” they say.  All I can do is tell them “I told you so”, which is a child’s worst phrase that they dread hearing.  There are other things that they can do while they are there so we take walks and/or jogs to the pier and back which helps break up our days.

Living in Pawleys Island is truly a blessing because all you have to do is get out of bed to enjoy the salt life here.  I practically live in my PJ’s and bathing suits along with a pair of flip flops.  It certainly cuts down on laundry around here!  No one really cares what you look like while you’re fishing, kayaking, surfing, swimming, boating, running, paddleboarding, etc.  It’s all about living the dream “the island life”.  In the evenings, it’s nice to get a little dressed up and go catch happy hour at some of our local restaurants especially the ones off of the beaches.  Later in the evenings, we have so much entertainment that you could practically stay out until 2:00 a.m. (unfortunately not for this mom  ).  Well, I believe you get the drift .. wake up, throw on a suit and a pair flip flops and enjoy God’s beautiful creation in Pawleys Island.
