Hill Billy Clan No.82

Okay, never, ever seen anything like this in my life! It was like something you would see on Hee-Haw. I don't know if any of you remember that show, but I use to watch it as a little girl. But Saturday morning at the beach, we were all awoken to music and noise. My mom got up first and then woke the rest of us up. Across the street was the Hill Billy Clan No. 82 annual meeting. The Low country Shine Club were dressed up as Hill Billies and apparently they do this every year. They get together on the last Saturday in May at Myrtle Beach and have a parade to raise money. It was the neatest, yet funniest thing. We didn't go to the parade because we got to watch, from our front porch, all the cars and people arrive. I hope they raise a lot of money. There is a Shriner's hospital in Greenville, SC and the next closest one is in Texas. They are wanting or will have to close down the one in Greenville because they are running out of funds. But those that don't know the Shriner's help children with physical disabilities get help with treatments or surgeries and the families don't have to pay. My mom worked as a nurse for summer at the one in Greenville. They do a super job and I know this side of the country will be lost if it has to close.
