Re: high-flyin' hummers in Myrtle Beach, SC

BTW, while some of y'all were preoccupied with that absolutely astounding
bldg height description (that IS a big ol' tall bldg, isn't it?) i sneaked
up into the Ol' North State and saw some birds and butterflies and bugs and
snakes and trees and flowers...and met a whole bunch of ol' friends for the
very first time.
