New Year's Day...it was perfect. Brian woke up to see the sunrise then made us breakfast. Afterwards, we walked around Folly Beach a bit. It's mainly a bunch of souvenir shops. Others were closed. Around noon, we drove over to The Frigs place and had a beach day! Such a nice surprise especially considering we weren't expecting such warm weather. In fact, it was one of the warmest January 1st's Folly Beach ever had. Traditionally, the town hosts a Bill Murray Look-A-Like Plunge, but the event was obviously cancelled this year. No matter. We just did our own! The water temperatures were only 54 degrees, but it wasn't Lake Michigan in freezing cold weather, so I'd say that is a win. The kids even spend a little time frolicking in the ocean. They are crazy like that. Later that afternoon, we went for lunch at our favorite place again, then had Zoom call with our Oak Park crew! It was so great seeing everyone, even if it was over a computer screen. The rest of the night we finished Hamilton, watched a little Baywatch (don't ask -- what a horrible show -- one of the channels must have had a marathon and we got sucked in a bit), and played Boggle. Before we knew it, it was 10pm and we hadn't even eaten dinner. But it was so late, and we were so tired that we headed out. A pretty good start to the new year, I'd say.
