One of the many things that I love about my job is that I’m responsible for researching, and often visiting, hotels around the country for the meetings we have throughout the year. This past week I ventured to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina to check out a resort. The hotel was lovely, the accommodations were more than roomy (I had a two bedroom suite all to myself), and they even sent me a special treat to my room when I tweeted about my stay! Of course there was plenty of business to take care of too. As nice as it was, I’m so happy to be home. It snowed for the first time since 1989 and I was a full day late getting home, meaning I spent my Valentines Day in an airport. Here are the photos from my trip…

Redbull was very necessary in preparing to get ready for the trip

Snow and palm trees

Fancy dessert for my tweet

The morning after the snow

How I spent my extra day away…

A blackberry muffin, latte, & This American Life podcasts.

Chicken, applewood bacon, & fried green tomato wrap. Mmm.

I watched the Arkansas game AND South Carolina game simultaneously

Dressed up. Dinner for one.

Almost home…
