    WHY MYRTLE BEACH?

    Yes, I’ve traveled the world from New York to London, Paris and Rome and lot of little country towns in between, but I spent my teenage years in this little seaside town in what even then was called (rather optimistically, we thought at the time), The Grand Strand.

    We moved into a grand two-story house right across from the beach. We lived on the upper floor and rented out the lower floor to tourists during the summer season for extra income. I can still remember my mother going out to hang the Vacancy sign on a swinging shingle. It read, simply and accurately enough, The Beach House.

    Well, those days are LONG gone, buster. The town typified by hundreds of modest beachside cottages has given way to tall high-rise hotels and condos. It looks more like the Florida towns of Hallandale or Sunny Isles than the Myrtle Beach I remember.

    The arcades I remember as a kid are still there, though of course very much more high-tech than they used to be. That feeling of being at a carnival or a county fair, a sense of the Midway—that feeling is still a part of Myrtle Beach’s little downtown. I don’t think that will ever go away.

    Or that tension in the air that convinces you (correctly) that every teenager coming here in the summer is looking to get laid. That won’t go away either. (It’ll happen here more likely than it will at home.)

    The big Ferris Wheel is really something. And the big music shows you get at Legends and other places tell you the Big Money has arrived. And it’s here to stay.

    Myrtle Beach has got to the ultimate location for the family-friendly vacation. There are dozens of great activities for kids.
