Last weekend, enroute to Florida, we stopped in Anderson, South Carolina for a wonderful 24 hours.
After seeing and touring the beautiful like-new ranch home of Uncle Lynn's, along with an update on the South Carolina Primary (the very next morning!), the 4 of us departed to Ann and Mike's spacious home, less than 5 minutes away. After a long day of teaching by Ann, she and Mike were still able to serve us all a fantastic and bountiful Southern-style dinner. We had a great visit and Kathleen and I then returned to a "bed-and-breakfast"...(yes, Uncle Lynn's comfortable home!). The next morning, after voting, Ann and Mike returned to her parents home where all 6 of us enjoyed a delicious breakfast, followed by an informative and interesting tour of the city of Anderson -- with native Mike narrating. We learned that the Bailes name is a longtime professional and respected mainstay in Anderson, S.C.
The photos reveal Mike's hobby of hunting deer (the 2 on the right side he shot in Alberta, Canada...the many others locally). He also does his own taxidermy!!!..... including the 10-pound+ largemouth bass he caught in a local farm pond.
For any of you traveling southeastwardly, we'd highly recommend stopping by
Uncle Lynn's & Ann's place for some great Southern Hospitality. You, and they, will love it. Thanks Uncle Lynn, Aunt Mim, cousin Ann and Mike.

Very nice pictures of everyone. I know from experience you got the "royal treatment". Can't beat that Southern Hospitality.
Cleve - could you send me an email. Did you change your email address? I tried to send you one and it was refused. Thanks.
Looks like you had a great time!
The pleasure was ours! Please come back any time! (That goes for other family as well.)
