Hello Sam! I'm (virtually) introducing myself to you as part of this week's assignment. My parents actually own a house in South Carolina on Hilton Head Island - curious if you've ever been to that part of the state. I hope you have a nice long weekend!

Hi Kim! Nice to (virtually) meet you! I live just up the coast from Hilton Head in Charleston, but I've never actually been there before. I have visited Daufuskie Island which is right across the water from Hilton Head though. It's a really nice area! Hope you've had a restful long weekend! -Lavsam (talk) 20:35, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
