Personal Steemit Update, plus Skywheel Photos from Myrtle Beach, SC

in #travel7 years ago

As you all know, I've been having some technical difficulties because I'm waiting on my new laptop. I'm trying to use my old laptop, but it doesn't want to upload photos well, plus it will not let me pull up busy.org or dtube for some reason. I am supposed to have my new laptop by Tuesday. I cannot wait, that way I can make more posts with great photos and some about my travel.

People who have been following me for awhile probably know I used to do a giveaway to my top followers every time I hit a new milestone of an additional 100 followers. I slowed down on that after I hit 1000 followers. For one reason, I was on vacation when I hit 1100 followers. The other reason is because I was actually hitting those milestones quicker and quicker to the point it was becoming hard to keep up with the pay outs lol. When I hit 1250 followers, I plan on having another giveaway to those who comment and upvote the most on my posts. I want to thank everyone who has been by my side as a genuine follower. I try to take notice of those who come by and check out my posts regularly and do the same for them.

I also try to follow everyone back despite it not being suggested from the posts I've read. Yeah, yeah, I know it fills my feed up with posts that might not have as great of content, but I really don't have time or the voting power to surf Steemit for Whale posts. By the time I get on here and reply to the comments left on my posts and upvote them, it chips away at my voting power pretty quickly. After I check out my regular Steemit friends posts (we upvote and comment on each others post on a regular basis), I usually end up offering to send SBD as my upvote because I cannot upvote anymore without dragging my voting power lower than I like for it to get. And most of my Steemit friends tell me not to send them SBD, but I do it anyways because I feel like it's only fair since you all are so supportive of my posts. I am very grateful for the support I receive on this platform!

I will leave this post with some pretty cool throwback photos of my husband and myself at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on the Skywheel! I found these photos from utilizing my old laptop, while I wait on my new laptop. The skywheel is a closed in ferris wheel made out of glass and each compartment has air conditioning. I took these back in 2012 when we first started dating. I hope you enjoy the photos!

My husband was pretty anxious on it! I found out that day, he does not like ferris wheels at all lol. Can you tell from the photo above?

At least in this photo, he lightened up some lol. We timed it right! Nom, nom, nom, looks like he is going to eat the pier and all of the people on it. Or if you want to look at it in another silly way, when I put it on Facebook, his guy friend said "hmm, you sure do have a purty mouth." Men... they can be so grossly hilarious.

I bet you're excited for your new laptop, I love new computer stuff! It should be a huge night and day difference switching from that old thing you're using now to the new one.

Old pictures are always fun to find. I love revisiting moments that I had mostly forgotten about, technology is a great thing! I think I'v actually been to myrtle beach once but it was so long ago that I can't even remember now lol.

Wow! You came all the way down to Myrtle Beach? I know you are from more up north... I can't exactly remember what state you said you are from.

I was kind of aggravated with the computer thing... having my computer crash, then getting a new one and getting it all set up just for it to have issues and malfunction. Then sending it back and waiting for the new one... but I must admit I am now happy to have a decent computer! Fingers are crossed that it doesn't have to be sent back though lol!

That's dizzyingly high! It would be interesting the see the view at night with all the lights. Your hubby seems like he is enjoying it or probably good at hiding his anxiety :)

It is pretty at night when it is lit up. We are thinking about going back for our anniversary this year. He was really anxious on it, but I got him to relax some.

That would be a great idea. Sounds like you are one with great convincing powers :D

I don't think he knew he didn't like ferris wheels till he was up there lol. Since then, he hasn't been back on one.

Good to know u care all of your followers...quit amazing pics....hopfully u spent some nice time ...

Thanks! I do appreciate my followers.

Oh my friend your old laptop have a great memories, I enjoyed it very much.
You and your nice husband are looking excited with joy.
Take Care.
Have a nice day.

I fell in love with my husband on that trip! It was a great memory. Hope you have had a wonderful day!

My God Bless On Your Lovely Life.
