hopefully, along the way you'll learn a little

5
00:00:16,105 --> 00:00:17,644
bit something about

6
00:00:18,197 --> 00:00:19,094
Our Carolina

7
00:00:19,468 --> 00:00:21,318

as we are broadcasting this segment of the

22
00:00:58,166 --> 00:01:00,022
Carolina outdoors. It is

23
00:01:00,732 --> 00:01:03,379
or or taping this segment of the Carolina

24
00:01:03,435 --> 00:01:06,456
outdoors. It is the third of July, and

25
00:01:06,456 --> 00:01:08,842
we've bringing on the Facebook Live audience from

26
00:01:08,921 --> 00:01:09,557
Jesse Brown's.

27
00:01:10,529 --> 00:01:12,068
It's the day before

28
00:01:12,846 --> 00:01:15,324
independence day. But what does that mean for

29
00:01:15,324 --> 00:01:17,742
us in the Charlotte area in the Carolina

30
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:18,860
Outdoor

31
00:01:19,653 --> 00:01:20,051
area.

32
00:01:20,848 --> 00:01:22,761
It means that Charlotte Douglas

33
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,210
International airport has hundreds of thousands

34
00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:28,859
traveling for the holiday.

35
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:30,459
The

36
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:31,260
transportation

37
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:32,700
security

38
00:01:33,239 --> 00:01:34,140
administration, Tsa

39
00:01:35,174 --> 00:01:37,668
are warning of this being the busiest

40
00:01:38,045 --> 00:01:39,560
summer on record.

41
00:01:40,278 --> 00:01:42,512
In fact, we've had many people at Jesse

42
00:01:42,591 --> 00:01:45,398
Brown's and here on the Carolina outdoors are

43
00:01:45,398 --> 00:01:48,668
reporting the long line stretching the length of

44
00:01:48,668 --> 00:01:50,205
the terminal terminals

45
00:01:51,061 --> 00:01:54,331
with weights through the Tsa lines, the security

46
00:01:54,331 --> 00:01:54,570
lines.

47
00:01:55,541 --> 00:01:56,838
Taking an hour

48
00:01:57,771 --> 00:02:00,319
or more in some cases, wait times of

49
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:03,266
30 minutes or less in standard screening lines,

50
00:02:03,759 --> 00:02:05,775
and those with pre check

51
00:02:06,551 --> 00:02:09,184
are supposedly being able to get in with

52
00:02:09,184 --> 00:02:10,801
less than 10 minutes. But

53
00:02:11,194 --> 00:02:14,311
that not is not necessarily been happening.

54
00:02:15,669 --> 00:02:16,649
Airport officials

55
00:02:17,108 --> 00:02:19,765
expect nearly 1200000.0

56
00:02:20,238 --> 00:02:20,738
passengers

57
00:02:21,752 --> 00:02:22,469
this week,

58
00:02:23,425 --> 00:02:24,700
front end of July,

59
00:02:25,258 --> 00:02:26,055
holiday week,

60
00:02:26,692 --> 00:02:27,011
alone.

61
00:02:27,583 --> 00:02:30,310
That's 12 percent more than the same

62
00:02:30,685 --> 00:02:31,481
last week.

63
00:02:32,117 --> 00:02:33,890
So it brings the question

64
00:02:34,439 --> 00:02:36,520
for those that are here in the Carolina,

65
00:02:36,599 --> 00:02:38,520
and it's 1 more reason for us to

66
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:39,819
be here in the Carolina

67
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,500
is to enjoy

68
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,180
either the beach

69
00:02:44,053 --> 00:02:44,872
to the east

70
00:02:45,565 --> 00:02:47,555
or the mountains to the west,

71
00:02:48,271 --> 00:02:50,976
and it's the age old question.

72
00:02:51,786 --> 00:02:53,316
Which would you choose

73
00:02:53,767 --> 00:02:54,560
during the summer?

74
00:02:55,194 --> 00:02:57,018
I've got a list of answers that several

75
00:02:57,018 --> 00:02:58,786
have given me and invite our Facebook

76
00:02:59,334 --> 00:03:02,690
live friends to chime in, beach or mountains,

77
00:03:03,249 --> 00:03:05,646
but also listeners to the Carolina outdoors, whether

78
00:03:05,646 --> 00:03:07,979
it be early on a Saturday morning via

79
00:03:07,979 --> 00:03:09,979
the air of W radio,

80
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:11,580
5AM to 6,

81
00:03:12,139 --> 00:03:14,319
or those that are joining in via podcast,

82
00:03:15,032 --> 00:03:16,722
which would you choose

83
00:03:17,412 --> 00:03:18,047
and why?

84
00:03:19,158 --> 00:03:20,587
And I looked at my friend Tj dj,

85
00:03:20,666 --> 00:03:22,753
the Dj Bog to see

86
00:03:23,538 --> 00:03:25,600
what answer he may put forward,

87
00:03:26,075 --> 00:03:27,289
beach or mountains.

88
00:03:28,216 --> 00:03:30,120
I gotta tell you, bill if I have

89
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:30,754
the option,

90
00:03:31,484 --> 00:03:32,523
I'm gonna do both.

91
00:03:34,281 --> 00:03:36,200
I'm gonna go to the beach, and I'm

92
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,118
gonna enjoy the sand, and I'm gonna get

93
00:03:38,118 --> 00:03:39,816
hot and sunburn and

94
00:03:40,355 --> 00:03:40,675
sweaty.

95
00:03:41,408 --> 00:03:43,261
Then I'm gonna head right to the mountains

96
00:03:43,397 --> 00:03:45,249
and just go sit in a stream

97
00:03:45,704 --> 00:03:46,738
until August, maybe.

98
00:03:47,613 --> 00:03:48,224
And just

99
00:03:48,904 --> 00:03:49,963
nice cool Mountain.

100
00:03:50,342 --> 00:03:51,380
Oh. 0, man.

101
00:03:52,499 --> 00:03:54,736
I like the way you play both sides

102
00:03:54,736 --> 00:03:55,535
of this coin.

103
00:03:56,270 --> 00:03:59,710
My answer probably depend on the, period of

104
00:03:59,710 --> 00:04:02,189
life that I am in. Yes. And right

105
00:04:02,189 --> 00:04:04,370
now, I am going to say

106
00:04:04,844 --> 00:04:08,220
Mountain. Okay. Alright. But in a previous

107
00:04:08,759 --> 00:04:10,676
part of my life, I would have said

108
00:04:10,676 --> 00:04:13,163
beach. So I'm not trying to be political,

109
00:04:13,322 --> 00:04:14,833
but right now, I'll go ahead and take

110
00:04:14,833 --> 00:04:15,231
a stand.

111
00:04:15,867 --> 00:04:16,582
I'm a mountains.

112
00:04:17,616 --> 00:04:19,445
In in the middle of the summer, I

113
00:04:19,445 --> 00:04:21,274
just wanna put my feet in the sand

114
00:04:21,274 --> 00:04:22,013
for a minute

115
00:04:22,481 --> 00:04:24,547
But I also want some of that, you

116
00:04:24,547 --> 00:04:25,738
know, Nana hale,

117
00:04:27,327 --> 00:04:28,383
freezing cold

118
00:04:28,916 --> 00:04:31,156
water, You know, whatever it is, 57

119
00:04:31,156 --> 00:04:33,383
degrees year round or, you know, I can't

120
00:04:33,383 --> 00:04:35,770
remember exactly what it is, but chili,

121
00:04:36,486 --> 00:04:39,835
which is it's just so refreshing when you're

122
00:04:39,835 --> 00:04:42,715
leaving a 90 degree day in Charlotte

123
00:04:43,246 --> 00:04:44,991
to head up to the mountains and just

124
00:04:44,991 --> 00:04:45,759
be able to

125
00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:48,516
drop that body temperature a little bit. That...

126
00:04:48,755 --> 00:04:50,513
So I'm gonna go with you on that,

127
00:04:50,673 --> 00:04:52,691
that mountains thing. We recognize

128
00:04:53,243 --> 00:04:56,266
the beach, Susan Lake via Facebook live is

129
00:04:56,266 --> 00:04:59,687
jumping in, and she says mountains.

130
00:05:00,258 --> 00:05:02,716
And I know Susan it it probably has

131
00:05:02,716 --> 00:05:05,040
a trout stream in mind in many aspects,

132
00:05:05,254 --> 00:05:07,395
and all that the mountains has the cooler

133
00:05:07,395 --> 00:05:07,633
weather.

134
00:05:08,684 --> 00:05:10,682
So thank you for jumping in, Susan,

135
00:05:11,561 --> 00:05:14,358
with the answer, her answer mountains.

136
00:05:14,917 --> 00:05:16,595
Let me give you a few others and

137
00:05:16,595 --> 00:05:19,164
we invite others to jump in via Facebook

138
00:05:19,164 --> 00:05:21,078
live to chime in and those who are

139
00:05:21,078 --> 00:05:23,391
listening other ways to the Carolina outdoors,

140
00:05:24,109 --> 00:05:27,194
think to yourself or later on, get on

141
00:05:27,871 --> 00:05:30,656
the Facebook page and chime in as well.

142
00:05:30,895 --> 00:05:31,929
Charlie from Charlotte.

143
00:05:32,566 --> 00:05:34,419
Jumps in. He says Mountains

144
00:05:35,364 --> 00:05:36,101
the reason

145
00:05:36,791 --> 00:05:37,187
golf,

146
00:05:38,377 --> 00:05:39,170
cooler weather,

147
00:05:40,518 --> 00:05:42,366
and there's more to do

148
00:05:42,992 --> 00:05:45,299
according to Charlie. Okay. Well, we'll go with

149
00:05:45,299 --> 00:05:46,890
that, Martha from South park area.

150
00:05:47,527 --> 00:05:49,356
She says beach. I like the sand.

151
00:05:49,928 --> 00:05:50,907
The ocean

152
00:05:51,283 --> 00:05:52,160
and the breeze,

153
00:05:53,355 --> 00:05:57,340
Martha concludes this about saying plus more shopping.

154
00:05:57,673 --> 00:06:00,399
Oh, okay. Now that that would be the

155
00:06:00,535 --> 00:06:02,443
game changer I would think. You're gonna have

156
00:06:02,443 --> 00:06:04,907
more more shopping opportunities at the beach.

157
00:06:05,559 --> 00:06:08,030
I think so. Definitely. I will also say,

158
00:06:08,667 --> 00:06:11,080
you know, the reason I'm going with a

159
00:06:11,457 --> 00:06:12,971
non answer, which is both.

160
00:06:14,421 --> 00:06:16,814
There's disc golf courses at the beach and

161
00:06:16,814 --> 00:06:18,648
in the mountains. So I'm gonna be happy

162
00:06:18,648 --> 00:06:21,040
either way. Yeah. So... But you know what?

163
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,370
I'm sure that those mountain courses we can

164
00:06:23,370 --> 00:06:25,370
bring this up on another segment, but the

165
00:06:25,449 --> 00:06:27,850
Mountain Courses are they more tough? They're a

166
00:06:27,850 --> 00:06:28,589
little more

167
00:06:28,970 --> 00:06:30,729
but I like it like that. You know?

168
00:06:30,970 --> 00:06:32,580
Well, Yeah. That you're in elevator

169
00:06:33,216 --> 00:06:34,648
Don't have to get up at,

170
00:06:35,443 --> 00:06:37,614
you know, the crack dawn

171
00:06:38,068 --> 00:06:41,139
to not sweat to death in the mountains

172
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,680
versus if you go to Myrtle Beach, and

173
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,279
you try to play some of the great

174
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,160
courses down there.

175
00:06:47,134 --> 00:06:48,969
Man, it's gonna be a hot day. It's

176
00:06:48,969 --> 00:06:50,884
hot. Yeah. We we just look this up

177
00:06:50,884 --> 00:06:53,118
as we're taping, and there is a the

178
00:06:53,118 --> 00:06:54,256
highest point in

179
00:06:54,569 --> 00:06:56,649
North in, you know, east of the Mississippi,

180
00:06:56,810 --> 00:06:57,449
Mount Mitchell,

181
00:06:58,730 --> 00:07:01,290
that high point, there's a 23

182
00:07:01,290 --> 00:07:01,790
degree

183
00:07:02,183 --> 00:07:02,683
temperature

184
00:07:03,138 --> 00:07:04,014
different, at least,

185
00:07:05,207 --> 00:07:05,707
during

186
00:07:07,038 --> 00:07:09,266
lunchtime on a, on a July day,

187
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,139
it can be

188
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,360
in Myrtle Beach, Columbia,

189
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,560
without the breeze, you know, at noon. It

190
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,319
can be, you know, 88 degrees.

191
00:07:19,294 --> 00:07:19,794
Versus

192
00:07:20,172 --> 00:07:23,146
or even Charlotte really, you know, mid eighties

193
00:07:23,524 --> 00:07:26,078
upper eighties at midday we're talking about, not

194
00:07:26,078 --> 00:07:28,725
the heat of 04:00 day. But Mount Mitchell,

195
00:07:28,885 --> 00:07:31,216
you can subtract 20 to 25

196
00:07:31,274 --> 00:07:33,742
degrees. That sounds pretty good to me. Yes.

197
00:07:33,981 --> 00:07:36,131
So if it's 88 in 1 place, it

198
00:07:36,131 --> 00:07:39,421
is 65 in the other place. Okay. And

199
00:07:39,421 --> 00:07:41,359
that that keeps it in mind

200
00:07:42,137 --> 00:07:43,975
as well. Another mountain vote,

201
00:07:44,788 --> 00:07:46,617
jumping in there with Susan Jim from Charlotte.

202
00:07:46,935 --> 00:07:47,730
Says mountains.

203
00:07:48,684 --> 00:07:50,535
I like the trap streams

204
00:07:51,069 --> 00:07:52,205
and hiking.

205
00:07:53,395 --> 00:07:54,694
In the mountains,

206
00:07:55,074 --> 00:07:57,154
so that is understandable.

207
00:07:57,555 --> 00:07:59,154
Let's think of some of the things that

208
00:07:59,154 --> 00:08:01,154
you can do in the mountains. Besides just

209
00:08:01,154 --> 00:08:03,085
trout fishing, or hiking,

210
00:08:03,722 --> 00:08:04,757
there's the scenery.

211
00:08:05,553 --> 00:08:07,624
Yeah. Just find a rock and sit down

212
00:08:07,624 --> 00:08:09,296
and just watch a world go by. No.

213
00:08:09,853 --> 00:08:12,490
Gorgeous. Yeah. So there's something like that. Here's

214
00:08:12,490 --> 00:08:13,284
what Sarah,

215
00:08:14,950 --> 00:08:17,173
I don't know where Sarah is located, but

216
00:08:17,332 --> 00:08:20,526
Sarah says, I'm older now. So I like

217
00:08:20,526 --> 00:08:22,860
relaxing with cooler weather and scenery.

218
00:08:23,635 --> 00:08:23,795
Okay.

219
00:08:24,512 --> 00:08:27,222
20 years ago, it would have been the

220
00:08:27,222 --> 00:08:27,621
beach.

221
00:08:28,274 --> 00:08:31,064
But now Sarah says. Okay. It's the mount.

222
00:08:31,383 --> 00:08:33,297
She's similar to you right where it's the

223
00:08:33,297 --> 00:08:35,370
time of your life. And now that that

224
00:08:35,370 --> 00:08:36,326
may change too.

225
00:08:37,059 --> 00:08:39,537
Where, you know, you go back and forth

226
00:08:39,537 --> 00:08:41,374
to... Well, I hadn't been to the beach

227
00:08:41,374 --> 00:08:42,733
in a while. It's time to go,

228
00:08:43,692 --> 00:08:45,450
put them toes in the sand for. Very

229
00:08:45,450 --> 00:08:47,785
true. Which to your point of voting for

230
00:08:47,785 --> 00:08:48,105
both,

231
00:08:49,304 --> 00:08:52,585
it could just depend. Right. Yeah. Absolutely. It

232
00:08:52,585 --> 00:08:54,585
could depend. Of course, with road improvements,

233
00:08:55,317 --> 00:08:57,089
you can access both easily

234
00:08:57,782 --> 00:08:59,451
within 3 hours. You can be to the

235
00:08:59,610 --> 00:09:01,916
South Carolina Coast, and really, the North Carolina

236
00:09:01,995 --> 00:09:03,904
Coast. Okay. 3 and a half hours that

237
00:09:03,904 --> 00:09:06,623
we'll keep it being real, as well as

238
00:09:06,623 --> 00:09:08,555
you can be in the high country well

239
00:09:08,612 --> 00:09:11,238
into the high country and cooler weather of

240
00:09:11,238 --> 00:09:13,329
the mountains of Western North Carolina,

241
00:09:14,911 --> 00:09:17,056
in 2 and a half or 3 hours,

242
00:09:18,010 --> 00:09:18,328
really,

243
00:09:18,884 --> 00:09:19,758
pretty easy.

244
00:09:20,632 --> 00:09:23,113
This person didn't leave their name but they

245
00:09:23,113 --> 00:09:24,571
said, they dread

246
00:09:25,268 --> 00:09:26,087
the beach

247
00:09:26,545 --> 00:09:30,455
during fourth. Oh, okay. Crowded. Yeah. Traffic,

248
00:09:31,428 --> 00:09:35,420
tau to tau. Oh, yeah. So that just

249
00:09:35,420 --> 00:09:35,920
means,

250
00:09:36,697 --> 00:09:38,613
the beach is covered with people. Right. Yeah.

251
00:09:38,852 --> 00:09:39,651
Towel to tau.

252
00:09:40,624 --> 00:09:41,124
People

253
00:09:41,582 --> 00:09:44,698
can't say that word. People people walking on

254
00:09:44,698 --> 00:09:45,577
your beep.

255
00:09:47,905 --> 00:09:51,086
My beach time is October. Is what this

256
00:09:51,086 --> 00:09:53,732
first sees. That's not that's not a terrible

257
00:09:54,027 --> 00:09:55,004
idea because

258
00:09:55,459 --> 00:09:56,595
especially here in the Carolina.

259
00:09:57,943 --> 00:09:58,902
September, October,

260
00:10:00,181 --> 00:10:02,898
that can still be beach weather. That's right.

261
00:10:03,137 --> 00:10:04,975
You know, you you may need a hoodie

262
00:10:04,975 --> 00:10:07,617
at night. But you can still be wearing

263
00:10:07,617 --> 00:10:10,240
your board shorts and flip flops, walking to

264
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,306
beach in October. It's not out of the

265
00:10:12,306 --> 00:10:14,231
question by any means. The voice you hear

266
00:10:14,231 --> 00:10:15,905
they are Tj dj the Dj Bog. I'm

267
00:10:16,064 --> 00:10:18,376
Bill Bart. Your host of the Caroline outdoor

268
00:10:18,376 --> 00:10:21,086
sponsored by Jesse Brown's. If you're just joining

269
00:10:21,086 --> 00:10:22,855
us, of course, we're blasting up and down

270
00:10:22,855 --> 00:10:25,646
the Eastern sea board via W radio, but

271
00:10:25,646 --> 00:10:28,197
we're inviting this segment. Our friends at Jesse

272
00:10:28,357 --> 00:10:31,637
Brown Cl, the Facebook page. Of to chime

273
00:10:31,637 --> 00:10:34,177
in as well to listen in as well.

274
00:10:34,415 --> 00:10:35,550
It's fourth of July

275
00:10:35,923 --> 00:10:36,240
week.

276
00:10:37,034 --> 00:10:39,549
So we're asking the question, if you're not

277
00:10:39,749 --> 00:10:40,948
traveling somewhere,

278
00:10:41,427 --> 00:10:43,126
where would you pick in the Carolina

279
00:10:43,905 --> 00:10:44,405
beach

280
00:10:45,103 --> 00:10:48,140
or mountains. T j answered first off. He

281
00:10:48,140 --> 00:10:50,382
answered both. I answered with a nun.

282
00:10:50,938 --> 00:10:52,368
Just to be clear. Which I like, I

283
00:10:52,368 --> 00:10:54,378
went with mountains just because

284
00:10:54,911 --> 00:10:56,817
of this stage of my life,

285
00:10:57,786 --> 00:10:59,773
I like the things that there are to

286
00:10:59,773 --> 00:11:01,601
do there. It doesn't mean I don't like

287
00:11:01,601 --> 00:11:03,349
going to the beach. Yeah. Of course. But

288
00:11:03,349 --> 00:11:05,495
it does seem a little bit hotter,

289
00:11:06,783 --> 00:11:08,617
a little bit more humid, A little bit

290
00:11:08,617 --> 00:11:09,117
more.

291
00:11:09,654 --> 00:11:12,207
That that is a brutal part of the...

292
00:11:13,164 --> 00:11:15,477
That's right. You know... Of the beach experience,

293
00:11:15,636 --> 00:11:18,042
but know, you get outside of a holiday,

294
00:11:18,202 --> 00:11:18,600
weekend can...

295
00:11:19,317 --> 00:11:21,548
It's not quite as bad. And the mountains

296
00:11:21,548 --> 00:11:24,272
can still have that as well. You you

297
00:11:24,272 --> 00:11:26,658
know, you go up during leaf peep and

298
00:11:26,658 --> 00:11:26,976
season.

299
00:11:27,533 --> 00:11:29,840
Yeah. Good luck. October on the Blue Ridge

300
00:11:29,919 --> 00:11:30,714
Parkway. Right.

301
00:11:31,430 --> 00:11:31,908
Mountains.

302
00:11:32,719 --> 00:11:33,778
That can be

303
00:11:34,237 --> 00:11:37,113
a tough tough time Ga. Yeah. I know

304
00:11:37,113 --> 00:11:39,910
that's Tennessee, but, hey, that's a whole another,

305
00:11:40,642 --> 00:11:42,871
ball of wax as far as traffic. And...

306
00:11:43,508 --> 00:11:46,134
But they do... You know, they... Ga is

307
00:11:46,134 --> 00:11:48,761
is a little bit more peaceful even in

308
00:11:48,761 --> 00:11:51,027
the summertime. Yeah. Then arguably,

309
00:11:51,959 --> 00:11:55,062
Myrtle Beach. Oh, definitely. Definitely. Hey, Scott.

310
00:11:55,699 --> 00:11:56,654
Jumped in. He says,

311
00:11:58,655 --> 00:12:01,194
I have 3 kids and I'm going to

312
00:12:01,194 --> 00:12:02,884
the beach. It's a family

313
00:12:03,971 --> 00:12:04,130
tradition.

314
00:12:04,939 --> 00:12:07,116
And the beach is the perfect playground.

315
00:12:07,733 --> 00:12:09,729
We've gone there since I was a kid,

316
00:12:10,368 --> 00:12:12,763
and now I lead the charge for my

317
00:12:12,763 --> 00:12:13,881
family that way.

318
00:12:14,614 --> 00:12:16,208
That's a great point, Scott brings it up.

319
00:12:16,447 --> 00:12:18,839
It is a tradition. So going to the

320
00:12:18,839 --> 00:12:19,078
beach.

321
00:12:19,716 --> 00:12:21,789
And, of course, much of the Carolina is

322
00:12:21,789 --> 00:12:22,267
built on,

323
00:12:23,398 --> 00:12:25,152
back in the twentieth century, a lot of

324
00:12:25,152 --> 00:12:26,667
it built on textiles.

325
00:12:27,305 --> 00:12:30,973
And during this week was famed for the

326
00:12:30,973 --> 00:12:34,024
textile industry, to close for 1 or 2

327
00:12:34,024 --> 00:12:36,605
weeks and, this time of year

328
00:12:36,985 --> 00:12:39,360
of the mills and and those sorts of

329
00:12:39,558 --> 00:12:42,287
those sorts of business that would close

330
00:12:43,140 --> 00:12:45,607
and people would go to the beach. Okay.

331
00:12:46,084 --> 00:12:47,676
So I didn't realize. I don't know if

332
00:12:47,835 --> 00:12:48,392
Scott is,

333
00:12:49,044 --> 00:12:50,740
from a textile family, but

334
00:12:51,357 --> 00:12:53,750
he has 3 kids, and the beach is

335
00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:55,504
like a playground. I don't know the age

336
00:12:55,504 --> 00:12:57,897
of his children, but I could totally see

337
00:12:57,897 --> 00:12:58,056
that.

338
00:12:58,949 --> 00:13:00,707
Now we wanna be safe too, but it...

339
00:13:00,866 --> 00:13:03,044
You imagine you have this gigantic

340
00:13:03,423 --> 00:13:06,234
sandbox for kids to play in. Right. Yeah.

341
00:13:06,713 --> 00:13:08,871
The safe part is because of North Carolina

342
00:13:09,031 --> 00:13:11,348
Beach is recently. We've had a lot of

343
00:13:11,348 --> 00:13:13,825
rip currents coming through that reportedly. So we

344
00:13:13,825 --> 00:13:14,145
want to...

345
00:13:14,876 --> 00:13:17,416
Be mindful and be respectful, but be safe

346
00:13:17,416 --> 00:13:18,289
when we're at the beach.

347
00:13:19,083 --> 00:13:19,583
Sam

348
00:13:20,352 --> 00:13:21,384
picks the beach,

349
00:13:22,352 --> 00:13:24,102
because I haven't been there in a long

350
00:13:24,102 --> 00:13:25,614
time. Great call.

351
00:13:26,171 --> 00:13:28,875
I had... See, that goes to why you

352
00:13:28,875 --> 00:13:30,567
pick a place. I haven't been there in

353
00:13:30,567 --> 00:13:33,364
a long time. Sam says, he wants some

354
00:13:33,364 --> 00:13:35,521
seafood, ice cream pup putt,

355
00:13:36,734 --> 00:13:37,552
and hanging

356
00:13:38,007 --> 00:13:39,622
with the ladies. Yes.

357
00:13:40,316 --> 00:13:40,794
Sound.

358
00:13:41,271 --> 00:13:42,625
I'm mad. You gotta sam.

359
00:13:43,421 --> 00:13:45,668
How me. Back to you what you're saying

360
00:13:45,668 --> 00:13:46,867
about tradition and stuff.

361
00:13:47,906 --> 00:13:50,703
Most... I I don't know. Most may be

362
00:13:50,703 --> 00:13:53,760
wrong, but it seems to me most families

363
00:13:54,552 --> 00:13:55,052
find,

364
00:13:55,666 --> 00:13:57,892
you know, as the kids are growing up,

365
00:13:58,449 --> 00:14:00,358
they get away to the beach. Right. During

366
00:14:00,358 --> 00:14:02,266
the summer when everybody's out of school,

367
00:14:03,157 --> 00:14:04,831
So it does become that.

368
00:14:05,708 --> 00:14:08,258
Oh, you have all the nostalgia of going

369
00:14:08,258 --> 00:14:10,512
as a kid with your family, and

370
00:14:10,824 --> 00:14:13,297
you know, go into certain restaurants and doing

371
00:14:13,297 --> 00:14:14,515
certain traditions

372
00:14:15,292 --> 00:14:16,408
while you're at the beach,

373
00:14:18,019 --> 00:14:20,580
So I can see as you grow older,

374
00:14:21,460 --> 00:14:23,299
hey, it's time to go to the mountains.

375
00:14:23,940 --> 00:14:26,519
Or the variety. Yeah. Right. Or

376
00:14:26,833 --> 00:14:28,504
Man, I need to get back to that

377
00:14:28,504 --> 00:14:30,732
tradition and feel a little more at home.

378
00:14:31,766 --> 00:14:33,437
I like it. So what did your family

379
00:14:33,437 --> 00:14:35,438
do? You... Started in Georgia a major way

380
00:14:35,438 --> 00:14:37,343
to the Charlotte area grew up in this

381
00:14:37,343 --> 00:14:40,201
area. Right. Did your family have a a

382
00:14:40,201 --> 00:14:42,599
pick. We all went... When we're in Georgia,

383
00:14:42,758 --> 00:14:43,951
we always went to Florida,

384
00:14:44,587 --> 00:14:47,051
Panama City. Yeah. It was a yearly, you

385
00:14:47,051 --> 00:14:49,914
know, Pc baby. Oh, yeah. And, I mean,

386
00:14:50,232 --> 00:14:51,129
that was just

387
00:14:52,235 --> 00:14:54,304
that... That's what you did. It wasn't...

388
00:14:54,861 --> 00:14:57,089
We're not going anywhere else. We're going to

389
00:14:57,089 --> 00:14:59,397
the beach. Okay. So that's a situation. Now

390
00:14:59,397 --> 00:15:01,722
we did go occasionally you know, in the

391
00:15:01,722 --> 00:15:04,277
fall or something like that to the mountains

392
00:15:04,277 --> 00:15:04,596
maybe,

393
00:15:05,234 --> 00:15:07,230
or, you know, hey, it's been a few

394
00:15:07,230 --> 00:15:08,826
years since we've seen snow,

395
00:15:09,879 --> 00:15:13,474
maybe they'd take us up to to somewhere

396
00:15:13,474 --> 00:15:15,232
in actions and... Yeah.

397
00:15:16,510 --> 00:15:17,010
But

398
00:15:18,039 --> 00:15:20,585
the beach. That was the traditional summer.

399
00:15:21,301 --> 00:15:22,914
I think... I mean, it's

400
00:15:23,528 --> 00:15:24,139
so excessive

401
00:15:24,816 --> 00:15:27,362
and school is out Right. In that tradition.

402
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,533
It does become generational

403
00:15:30,306 --> 00:15:33,033
as well, but, of course, the mountains have

404
00:15:33,744 --> 00:15:35,342
I mean, the mountains have always been the

405
00:15:35,342 --> 00:15:38,058
mountains, but they have the amenities in the

406
00:15:38,058 --> 00:15:38,937
mountains now.

407
00:15:39,576 --> 00:15:40,695
It's not quite...

408
00:15:41,667 --> 00:15:44,379
Is as rustic maybe, for those people who

409
00:15:44,379 --> 00:15:46,532
are looking for more, there are, you know,

410
00:15:47,409 --> 00:15:50,121
nice hotels, Nice resorts, nice lodge.

411
00:15:50,851 --> 00:15:51,351
B,

412
00:15:52,199 --> 00:15:52,699
Airbnb,

413
00:15:53,151 --> 00:15:54,603
all of that have made

414
00:15:55,134 --> 00:15:56,347
go into the mountains,

415
00:15:56,799 --> 00:15:57,592
a little bit,

416
00:15:59,039 --> 00:16:01,116
more plush if you wanna do it that

417
00:16:01,116 --> 00:16:02,554
way. Don't make fun of me here on

418
00:16:02,554 --> 00:16:05,032
the Carolina outdoors because we're all about being

419
00:16:05,032 --> 00:16:07,042
in a sleeping bag and a tent If

420
00:16:07,042 --> 00:16:09,129
you're interested in going to the mountains and

421
00:16:09,265 --> 00:16:11,488
and having a proper campsite site, remember to

422
00:16:11,488 --> 00:16:14,028
get your reservations into the different state parks.

423
00:16:14,678 --> 00:16:16,425
Listen. As well. We're not gonna shame you

424
00:16:16,425 --> 00:16:18,886
for gl either. So now if you wanna

425
00:16:18,886 --> 00:16:20,553
live the high while you're in the mountains,

426
00:16:20,791 --> 00:16:22,458
do what you gotta do, just get your

427
00:16:22,458 --> 00:16:25,123
supplies at Jesse Brown. I like it speaking

428
00:16:25,262 --> 00:16:27,420
of. It's 1 more reason to be in

429
00:16:27,420 --> 00:16:29,577
the Carolina because we can have these types

430
00:16:29,577 --> 00:16:32,304
of choices, the mountains, or the beach and

431
00:16:32,304 --> 00:16:33,894
whether you're heading for the mountains,

432
00:16:34,450 --> 00:16:36,914
Jesse Brown, the sponsor of the Carolina outdoors

433
00:16:36,914 --> 00:16:38,925
has hiking boots and fly rods

434
00:16:39,952 --> 00:16:42,819
right there in the shop, Jesse Brown located

435
00:16:42,819 --> 00:16:45,369
in the South park area of Charlotte, the

436
00:16:45,369 --> 00:16:48,077
shopping district of Charlotte, if you will, also

437
00:16:48,077 --> 00:16:50,399
available at shop dot jesse browns dot com.

438
00:16:50,797 --> 00:16:52,864
However, if you're heading to the coast, and

439
00:16:52,864 --> 00:16:55,568
that is your choice of these 2 choices,

440
00:16:55,727 --> 00:16:57,795
the mountains or the beach.

441
00:16:58,844 --> 00:17:00,519
You're going to the coast, we have sun

442
00:17:00,519 --> 00:17:03,390
protective clothing, which is amazing because you don't

443
00:17:03,390 --> 00:17:06,262
have to sla all of that sun block

444
00:17:06,262 --> 00:17:07,936
all over you, you can just put on

445
00:17:07,936 --> 00:17:10,108
a shirt that covers you. It still keeps

446
00:17:10,108 --> 00:17:10,747
you cool,

447
00:17:12,585 --> 00:17:12,905
I mean,

448
00:17:14,263 --> 00:17:16,581
against the expectation of a long sleeve shirt

449
00:17:16,581 --> 00:17:17,380
in the summertime,

450
00:17:17,794 --> 00:17:20,827
No. These days, the fabric, the material, the

451
00:17:20,827 --> 00:17:21,327
technology

452
00:17:21,705 --> 00:17:24,340
involved in it keeps you cool, but also

453
00:17:24,340 --> 00:17:26,335
blocks the Uv, the Uv b,

454
00:17:26,989 --> 00:17:29,782
rays, so you are protected. We have nomadic,

455
00:17:30,340 --> 00:17:30,739
towels.

456
00:17:31,697 --> 00:17:34,011
These are sun proof or or sand proof.

457
00:17:34,824 --> 00:17:36,260
Towels. You know what that means? It means

458
00:17:36,260 --> 00:17:39,370
that sand does not stick. That's fantastic. I

459
00:17:39,370 --> 00:17:41,843
know it. Who invent us? Why did it

460
00:17:41,843 --> 00:17:44,097
take so long? I know and the

461
00:17:44,475 --> 00:17:47,672
aforementioned in previous segments, Mike's Spike. We just

462
00:17:47,672 --> 00:17:50,001
had Mike Han given us a beach report

463
00:17:50,058 --> 00:17:52,603
from Ocean Drive, a neighborhood in North Myrtle

464
00:17:52,762 --> 00:17:55,012
Beach. He jumped on his shared. So Jesse

465
00:17:55,172 --> 00:17:57,089
Brown has all of those things.

466
00:17:57,728 --> 00:17:59,885
Where do you pick the coast?

467
00:18:00,538 --> 00:18:03,318
Or the mountains, the beach or the mountains,

468
00:18:03,556 --> 00:18:05,224
which is it gonna be Tim.

469
00:18:06,098 --> 00:18:07,449
I ain't going nowhere.

470
00:18:09,053 --> 00:18:11,596
I ain't going nowhere. No traffic,

471
00:18:12,073 --> 00:18:15,037
too expensive, and I don't travel on holidays.

472
00:18:15,888 --> 00:18:17,716
Good for you, Tim, Annie.

473
00:18:18,209 --> 00:18:20,361
She loves the mountains because she likes watching

474
00:18:20,361 --> 00:18:21,100
the fireworks,

475
00:18:21,557 --> 00:18:24,028
here you go Tj dj from way above.

476
00:18:24,984 --> 00:18:27,013
She looks forward to that every

477
00:18:27,548 --> 00:18:27,866
year.

478
00:18:28,662 --> 00:18:31,209
Allan says sliding rock in b var area

479
00:18:31,209 --> 00:18:33,119
is something that we've done for years. A

480
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,678
sore butt and a wet beach towel is

481
00:18:35,678 --> 00:18:38,380
something that I look forward to going there.

482
00:18:39,016 --> 00:18:41,320
So I guess a sword butt because you

483
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,802
jumped down on the rock and slide into

484
00:18:43,802 --> 00:18:45,638
the pool. That is a great time too.

485
00:18:47,074 --> 00:18:49,628
There's that pool there? As sliding rock. Right?

486
00:18:49,867 --> 00:18:52,440
That is cold. Cold water. That will take

487
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:53,319
your breath away.

488
00:18:54,279 --> 00:18:56,440
All the more reason for going there if

489
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,119
you're going up into the B var area,

490
00:18:58,613 --> 00:19:00,440
check that out. Tj dj. We've run our

491
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,745
course of time. Well, I guess we should

492
00:19:02,745 --> 00:19:03,142
take a break.

493
00:19:03,857 --> 00:19:05,526
That's the voice of Tj dj, the Dj

494
00:19:05,526 --> 00:19:08,269
box. I'm Bill Bart host of the Carolina

495
00:19:08,409 --> 00:19:10,730
outdoors will take that break he mentioned, but

496
00:19:10,730 --> 00:19:12,250
be back on the other side seeing in

497
00:19:12,250 --> 00:19:12,649
a minute.
