I wandered through Myrtle Beach for the first time in 30 years one afternoon last summer. I will never go back.
A couple years ago, I pulled a photo gig for the MB marathon. The night before, I drove the main drag and saw all the boarded up hotels.
I also dropped my speed light on some concrete. A small plastic piece broke off but the flash works solid. It is about 10 years old.
I have no real desire to go to MB. It was fun up until the late 80s or so for me.
