My post (although completely true) was meant as a joke.
Sometimes you will see someone wearing a Hilton Head souveneir T-shirt, and my above post was the standard line that I would use. I quit using it because I was always getting a blank stare in return: never so much as a smile.

We visited Hilton Head because we had attended my son’s graduation———on Parris Island,2 days earlier.
July-——and VERY HOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
