Every June, our extended family spends a week at DeBordieu Beach, just north of Georgetown, SC. Legend has it that the Revolutionary War hero, the Marquis de Lafayette, arrived here in June 1777. He was so enchanted by the area's natural beauty that he declared it "the borderland of God" (D'aborde Dieu). Remarkably, the place hasn't changed that much since Lafayette last dropped in.

Someone told the kids that Blackbeard might have buried his treasure here. |

We found a treasure chest full of "gold" doubloons! The older kids are skeptical. |

Wes already has beach life figured out. |

Tired of biking? The support crew will promptly pick you up. |
