today was the ceremony for the reopening of the historic Barringer (http://capitolplaces.com/barringerhome.htm) building, the first high-rise in South Carolina, as apartments.
the nice people at Capitol Places provided food and a visit to the outdoor deck on their nearby Tapp's (http://www.capitolplaces.com/tapps.htm) Building

not bad. i used to go to columbia every now and then to see bands at new brooklyn tavern. i think i would always eat at this place called yesterdays. once i drove drunk from augusta, ga to the columbia airport at 4 in the morning for no reason. i was a white kid wearing a martin luther king jr 90's style sweatshirt. it was great. so you live in columbia, but you're moving? where to? i may have read incorrectly.

Maybe when you go down to visit your brother, I can arrange to visit my dad at the same time, and we can do a little Carolina road trip? :) (ie: Columbia, Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Savannah (GA), Asheville (NC), Charlotte, etc...)
