Oh, man.

SPEAKER_01 0:24

There's nothing, you know, it's like when I see a newly paved road, I think roller skates. When I see a newly uh laid floor, that's kind of wood, but not, um, I would, I prefer wood. I think instantly, I think tap dancing. And when I see a brand new bamboo floor laid down, I think yoga.

SPEAKER_02 0:47

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 0:47

Yeah. I love flooring. Flooring's my thing.

SPEAKER_02 0:50

So you and I grew up roller skating. Did you ever get into the inline skating?

SPEAKER_01 0:54

No.

SPEAKER_02 0:55

I didn't either.

SPEAKER_01 0:55

I'm not very talented in that regard.

SPEAKER_02 0:58

How about ice skating?

Ice skating, water skate, uh, water skiing, snow skiing.

SPEAKER_01 1:10

I tried the water skiing thing and the windsurfing thing.

SPEAKER_02 1:14

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 1:15

That was not my cup of tea.

SPEAKER_02 1:20

I loved it.

SPEAKER_01 1:21

You know, here's the thing. I'm not a I I'm, you know, I'm strong. I, you know, used to work out, he's dance, all that stuff. But I'm just like, I can't do like those extreme things. I'm holding on for dear life. Like that's like really hard for me to do. I don't know, maybe it's because I have small hands. I don't know. I I really don't know. But um, yeah, my friends all waterski. They my friend had a beach house, and she and all her friends could water ski all over the place. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:48

It was great. I I actually water skied on the Walcamar River here and the intercoastal way.

SPEAKER_01 1:53

Did you do it in that park?

SPEAKER_02 1:55

That little I don't remember, but my dad got the boat when he retired.

SPEAKER_01 1:58

Oh, like real like like out in the wild.

SPEAKER_02 2:01

Yeah, and my mom was so worried about it. So you could do it over there on the uh My mom was worried about alligators and poisonous snakes. Yeah. And I didn't you can't see in that water. There's it the water is so dark and black, you just can't see anything.

SPEAKER_01 2:14

I think they call that what brackish and they they they say it's the trees.

SPEAKER_02 2:19

Trees. Yeah, the roots of the trees.

SPEAKER_01 2:21

So they say.

SPEAKER_02 2:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:23

Um yeah, I'm I'm not like I'm not an extreme sports person. Although I did climb a plastic rock wall once.

SPEAKER_02 2:34

I've never done that. I would like to give that a try.

SPEAKER_01 2:37

Yeah, I did do that once. That takes a lot of grip. Right now, what I did was la yesterday my mom, I had my mom, I bring like uh a couple times a week, I bring my mom home with me. Uh sometimes I just stay and visit her where she is, and then other times I bring her home. I kind of go in and gauge the mood, and I go, okay, let's go, mom. And then we go. Um and so uh so yesterday we spent, I left right from here, went and got her and kept her till eight o'clock. And I took out my dad's guitars because I just had them repaired um over at Sound Systems, and uh she's like, That's your father's. And I said, Yeah, I said, Um, you know, I found an app on tuning a guitar because I used to do it with the piano. I don't have a piano anymore. So I found a guitar tuning app, and then like you play the boom, and then it tells you if it's you know. So I was like, oh wow. And then it go, it went in, okay, you're ready to learn the guitar. And I was like, Oh, it's an app to learn the guitar. So I started and I and I my mom's like, you don't play like your father. I was like, this is hard. You know what's the hardest thing about the guitar? Now I played the violin growing up, so I'm used to that horrible feeling on the tips of your fingers when you don't have calluses yet.

SPEAKER_00 3:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:56

Um, but I have my nails on, so I can't do really anything. So I have to get rid of those first. But they're they're gonna go away soon. And then I'll be able to play. But um the you gotta look, like I don't know where the frets are yet. So I have to look. Sure. And so you're like hunched over and sideways, and uh like how do people learn how to play the guitar? Like, why is this so uncomfortable? So I have to get totally like physically like you know, conditioned to play the guitar. I don't know if I'm gonna be able to play, but I did play the violin, so I'm used to doing something with this hand and doing something different with that hand. Right. Because you know, I used to do the bow and even plucking. But um I just uh I don't know. I don't I don't I don't see it happening.

SPEAKER_02 4:45

Well I was told I was told because I'm left-handed, I should learn if I was gonna learn to play the guitar, I should do right-handed because there's more right-handed guitars available and it's easier and it's easier to learn, right? But I've been playing the air guitar since I was a kid, left-handed. So I don't know that I could actually do it right-handed.

SPEAKER_01 5:03

It's interesting. That's what happened to Nick. So he plays right.

SPEAKER_02 5:07

But he's lefty. But I think he's lefty. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They say it's easier. You get uh learn you can learn faster and better if you go with right-handed, but Really?

SPEAKER_01 5:17

Yeah. I don't think I could do anything the other way.

SPEAKER_02 5:19

Well, when I started in the grocery industry, you know, I used a calculator and uh Dottie Crab, old lady smoking up in the office back in those days. And uh I got I stood up in the office and uh moved her calculator over to the left-hand side. And she's like, What are you doing with my calculator? Exactly. And I said, I'm left-handed. She goes, I don't care. Put it back on the right hand side. And I'm like, I can't scratch my butt with my right hand. You want me to run a calculator? Well, Dottie Crab, thanks to her, I can run a calculator pretty darn good with my right hand. That's the way I learned in the very beginning, and then I carried it through my entire career. And and still at home, you know, tax time, uh monthly paying the uh income or the uh sales tax, you know, I have to do every month. So I I I still use the big calculator.

SPEAKER_01 6:03

You do, huh? Yeah. My grandfather, he was a businessman and he had this ancient, I don't even know what I did with it because I had it for so long, and I don't know when I moved here, I don't know what happened. I forgot. But this really old one, like those old cash registers with the big round circle buttons. Yeah. And then we'd pull that and we he used to, I would every time he used to like do all of his business, uh, I guess whatever computing he was doing, he I would stand there and I was the person who would, you know, he would let me pull that all all the time. And uh yeah, Pop was the coolest guy. I mean, he owned businesses, he owned real estate, he was a musician, he was a piano teacher, he played that triple decker organ. I donated his organ to a convent on Long Island after when he died, and then I took his piano um that we all learn piano on. But I mean the guy worked with his hands, he was, you know, it was amazing. Um people are yeah, it's har it's hard to find um people that are so versatile these days, you know. I don't know if we have as many hobbies. Do people have hobbies like they used to?

SPEAKER_02 7:15

I don't know. I mean, Hobby Lobby's still in business.

SPEAKER_01 7:17

So is my I did see that over in uh uh Merle's Inlet. I was like, oh, Hobby Lobby's down here? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 7:24

Now my dad, he before he passed away, I'm I'm gonna guess probably like six months before, I I had to go over to their house and and fix something, change an outlet, basically a light switch in the bathroom. It was flickering, and um I went in and took it off and put it back on and um put in a new one. And um, when I was leaving, I he was laying in the bed and he grabbed both my hands and he said, Where did you learn to do that? And I said, You taught me dad. And no, I didn't teach you that. And I'm like, You have no idea all the things that you taught me. We were the you know, kids. Glenn, come outside, hold this flashlight for me while he's working on the car, you know. So we we got a lot of uh instruction uh just watching him. So yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:07

Well, last yesterday I was helping my mom, you know, because I bring her to my house and I make sure she gets showered and I I do I call it a spa day. So I do all the things that girls need to do. And uh she's like, What is it now? You're the mommy and I'm the baby, okay, mommy. Like she was saying that, like, and I said, What? I'm not a good mommy, no, you're a good mommy. I said, Well, okay, then be quiet. You know, it's hard for them to, you know, say, okay, but you know what's also hard? As the adult child, it's hard to do it for your parent.

SPEAKER_00 8:46

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:47

Because you're so used to, is it okay? Can I do this? Should I do this? Should I? And now it comes to the point where you have to like you have to step up and do it. And it's like a a switch, you know, and finally that switch went off last year, a little over a year ago, where I was like, all right, that's it. I'm going in there and I'm just taking her home. I you know, she's enough of this, you know. Ma, I know, I'm not leaving my home. Okay, Ma. Okay. I mean, and then I'm trying to like lay out all these stepping stones and and bubble wrappers so she doesn't hurt herself in in this, you know, mindset that she's in of not thinking she needs help when clearly uh it's it's deadly for her to be alone. And finally, I had to grow up. You know, like I grew up in my own life, but I I couldn't stand up to my mother. You know, and finally I'm like, all right, that's it. And once that switch went off, you know, I became the lioness now for my mom, as I was for my children. And yeah, it is you have to watch your tone. Well because the essence of your parent is is there. And she's like, Well, who the hell do you think you are? You know, I said, Oh, you want me to stop? I'm help I'm just helping you. You do it. I'm just helping you.

SPEAKER_02 10:03

I'm gonna guess like three, four years before he passed away. He he was on the roof fixing something, and it was because he he said they can't do it right. Yeah, right? That we can call somebody, right? So uh I'd say two years before he passed away, then um he's up on this ladder painting the eaves of the house when I pull up. And I mean he's like way up there, and I'm like, hey dad, dad. Um and he got mad because my daughter my sister sent me a picture of him on that ladder, and of course I arrived. And I was like, We can get somebody to to do this. You do not need to be up there. You know, he put his finger in my face and said, Someday I'm gonna need you. But it's not today. Leave me, you know, basically leave me alone. Let me do what I'm doing.

SPEAKER_01 10:48

Exactly. And I get that, so there's a delicate balance when you're that adult child watching your parent do all sorts of stuff.

SPEAKER_02 10:56

And he was treacherous. He was stubborn, you know. Even Dr. Lolly said your dad was a very stubborn man, you know?

SPEAKER_01 11:04

I think I'd be stubborn too. Well, I'm gonna be stubborn. Listen, I I wish uh dementia on no one. No. It is um what an what an evil thing. I mean, I wa I'm watching the process uh thro you know, just by uh osmosis of you know where my mom is, and I'm like oh my gosh, you know, I wish that on nobody. It is uh and I you know, I I'm looking at all these uh things and information and and you know, these doctor influencers, and I don't even know if they're real doctors and these um health influencers talking about why it happens, how to slow it down, how to prevent it, why is this happening to because I remember growing up there were not many people who had dementia, but then people say, Oh, well that's because we're living longer, and there's like so many, you know, down the block from my house, they're building another assisted living. And um, when I was on in Long Island, there were so many adult daycare centers where if your parent is living at home and then for the day they would go there so you could go to work or you could do what you gotta do. Um I want to create this, I have no money to do it, but this is amazing. Two concepts that are truly amazing. One is in I want to say it's in uh Tampa area. Adult daycare, and it says town center. Okay, it looks like a mall. And you're you go in there as a um paying member, and it's set up like a mall, like individual like alcoves of entities. There's a barber, a hairdresser, a nail salon, a clothing store, like all these different things, a podiatrist, and as a senior, you go in there because one of the things is you have to clip your toenails, like who's gonna do that for you? You know, I mean you can't do it anymore once you're at a certain stage or physical um you know, and and the person you pay for the the day, you go in there, and there's another place that's entertainment, there's another place that's exercise. It's an adult day care center disguised as a mall.

SPEAKER_02 13:36

I like that.

SPEAKER_01 13:37

And you go in, and I it's called Town Center R E at the end. I said, Oh my god, uh, we need this so bad here. Talk about like daily respite care for the caregiver. People could have their parents stay home with them if they could go somewhere during the day so you could go to work or you could go play your golf or you could go because it's hard to be with someone who has dementia all day long. Yeah, you know, or you know, it's it's incredi it's just such an incredible concept. The other concept is, you know, I I've talked about how my daughter lives in a um in a group home with um three other women who have sib similar cognitive issues as my daughter, and um they don't have any around here. She's gotta live all the way up in Spartanburg. And so I go up there four times, five, four or five times a year to see her, but it's like a four and a half hour drive every time back and forth. And so um the thing with with that is is like what about that concept for people with dementia where you can live in a home-like environment and have someone there 24-7 and have that care um and not be, and then you can like pick four people who are similar in level as opposed to having the gamut, which uh you know, anybody that's gone through any type of facility like that knows what I'm talking about. Not everybody's at the same pace or at the same level, and it doesn't make sense to put them all in one pot because it it thwarts the other people from thriving, I think. And so that's why I take her out as often as I can um because the stimulus, the pets, I have you know, I have dogs and cats and I have sunshine, I have a screen room, she's outside all day. Over there, she's inside all day.

SPEAKER_00 15:41

Right.

SPEAKER_01 15:42

Um and nobody's talking to her because no one's capable of having a conversation with her. You know, so very few people are having you know, conversation with her or know her background well enough to draw upon a conversation.

SPEAKER_00 15:55

Right.

SPEAKER_01 15:55

So we just need to change the way we look at things and um I mean Well, are there a lot of mall walkers here?

SPEAKER_02 16:02

Because I I I was a wall a mall walker because I had broke my ankle, turned my foot around backward, had to learn to walk again. Yeah, you know, two two times, two different surgeries, and I would go to the mall and walk because first off, it's really cold or snow and it wasn't safe. It was a nice level place, and then um uh you know, I I don't know. It's a community of people, yeah, and then the heat here. But I saw the all the other older people that were mall walkers, and I just don't know. Probably when it gets really hot, this probably happens here. Um, but I don't know about you know wintertime or if there's regulars at the mall that do the walking, but I have seen people over at the mall where they're building that flavor flavor town.

SPEAKER_01 16:44

I don't know if they there are at the Coastal Grand Mall.

SPEAKER_00 16:47

Right.

SPEAKER_01 16:48

I don't I'm not sure. Um and I don't even know if the mall management really frowns upon it or not.

SPEAKER_02 16:53

Yeah, I I never ran into any problems, but you know, trying to outrace some guy that's like 30 years older than you and you're trying to learn to walk again.

SPEAKER_01 17:02

Uh absolutely. All right, 624. We're gonna take a break.

SPEAKER_02 17:06

Yeah, we gotta take a um we need a um field trip to the big fair going on in DC right now. It's got kicked off last week.

SPEAKER_01 17:13

Yeah. I feel a little removed from like this 250 thing. I when we were kids, it was like big deal, right? The bicentennial.

SPEAKER_02 17:22

1976. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 17:23

And now um I just don't I I are we doing enough here? I don't know. I need to pay attention. What can we do to participate in our little area of going on in DC, but is there anything going on here that people want to tell us about? What about the 4th of July? What are we doing? Are we doing anything? We should do something. So um one of the things that is just actually coming over the wire here is that the death toll is going up on those um earthquakes. Now, I talked about it on the Facebook Live. So in Caraca we had four earthquakes yesterday. One in California, one in Japan, two in Caracas. Well, actually, it's we're we still don't know exactly where this hit. We just happen to know that Caracas was very, very um damaged by this. So they had a 7.2 and 35 seconds later, a 7.5 magnitude earthquake, which is very unusual, experts say, to have a stronger earthquake after an earthquake. Usually it's an after tremor, um, but this was beyond that. And so uh the 7.2 is 20 times stronger than the one that hit San Francisco. And the 7.5 is 10 times stronger than the first one, 7.2. And it's like taking a blanket, you know, when you're straightening out the blanket on your bed and you flip it, um, and you kind of spread it out or a beach blanket, that's what it's like. That is the the force that it's throwing the buildings and the people up. Now they are saying the death toll is now up to 164 people, but they are saying that is just the beginning. Um, and that is so sad. Um almost a thousand people have been uh counted as injured, and the acting president uh right now says that um there's you know this is this is gonna be bad. Uh there are so many buildings evacuated, and it went as far as Brazil um and that's about 1700 well, about a thousand miles from Venezuela's capital. Can you imagine that? Thousand miles away. They are evacuating buildings because of this earthquake, these earthquakes. Um now they have uh they're pulling people out alive. There's only one camera live shot there. Uh there the internet's down, like everything is down. Uh, I'm guessing Starlink is in I I don't know. People are trapped in col there's so many collapsed buildings, they're saying, that they can't even get to every so Trump um said that every agency has been ordered to get mobilized and get down to Venezuela to help our new friends, he said in Venezuela. Um dozens of buildings are c and they don't even know what's happening like in the outskirts. This is like in Caracas, where it's you know very um, you know, populated and has a lot of buildings, but they don't even know what's happening in like the mountains or all around. They have no idea. Venezuela sits near multiple fault lines, it straddles the South American and Caribbean plates, which makes strong earthquakes much less common than other parts of Latin America. They don't know how deep it is, they don't know how far it was from Caracas, they don't know any of that right right now. I don't know anything um else on that uh topic here. Uh let me see if I can see. Um see if there's anything else I can tell you. So uh yeah, the fact that it was back to back is is very rare. They said, but many governments, uh Secretary of State Rubio said that the United States is immediately deploying search and rescue teams, medical resources, and humanitarian assistance. That's what it says here. Um and so we'll see what happens as the day unfolds. Uh it's just a horrific situation there.

SPEAKER_02 21:43

Um, there's like thirty-two were dead this morning, now 164.

SPEAKER_01 21:48

They say that that's just bare minimum. Um because of the fact that it's like the whole city has collapsed buildings. And they were saying uh they can hear. people screaming for help under these piles of rubble from the buildings and it's just like if you saw just that one video zoomed out it's unbelievable just mountains of rubble um and so yeah so say prayer for the people there that there were no reports of any damage or um building um destruction in Japan or California uh I think if they said Northridge California I don't know where that is but uh there's um so there's no no bad news coming out of there and they also said that they all four were not connected the two were connected but the four altogether were not connected but they all happen to happen happen to happen on the same day. So all right we're gonna take a break at 636 and uh we'll be back with more we have the great American State Fair kicking off with Trump and the amazing band the military band behind him so that was awesome and we have we have some clips from that and um had a lot to say about the uh oil companies and why the gas isn't coming down. I don't know if it's actually uh I wish it didn't have him kind of saying hey we should have gas at 225 right now what are you doing?

SPEAKER_02 23:19

They say they're using some AI to you know strategically price their gas so make more money I don't know all right we'll be back all right 643 on the Liz Callaway show with Nick Summers.

SPEAKER_01 23:44

Alright so I I I did a little um searchy poo and I found that the Pruitt Healthcare facility is being developed by the Myrtle Beach Development Resource Group and that's at the near the corner of well between 71st and 76th on um highway 17 it says as part of the conceptual view and I don't I don't know if this is actually happening because a lot of times this is gotta get it super approved and this article is from a year ago. So I don't actually know what ended up getting approved. But it said it's supposed to include a Starbucks and a sports bar there with a hospitality kind of feel to it. So um that's kind of interesting. I'd live there if I was you know you know what I find that a uh happens especially because of people that are transplants here and they're retiring here they create a new extended family of friends and they really take good care of each other. Um and that's so great to see and they you know they help each other a lot and that's like awesome.

SPEAKER_02 24:52

Like Bob Keller's neighborhood.

SPEAKER_01 24:54

That's a great group of people that's why I'm trying to get my son to move in there. He's a little young for that group uh but it is nice to see um neighbors and you know back in the old day every old days everybody used to live down the block you know your whole family um or you had a two family house you know a lot of people had those back then mother daughter house you know all that so you know um so it is nice to see we're in communities really kind of when they're all up in your grill that's not good when there's drama but when it when it's good it's good that's for sure. Because uh we do need each other by the way if you haven't noticed.

SPEAKER_02 25:32

Well you know I was running the business in Maryland we had somebody move in next door and uh I'd get home from work and I get a knock on the door and uh of course it was not convenient for me at the time when she would knock because when you get home there's certain things that you want to take care of. Yes of course and um she was like I just want to let you know you got a package. And of course I was getting packages all the time because that's the business and I I I I wanted to tell her so much thank you so much. I what what did we do before you moved in? But I never did. She's passed away now actually they end up moving to Myrtle Beach as well. Oh wow I had I had the neighbor that was in their house before move to Myrtle Beach. Oh I did his house then then they moved out and moved to Myrtle Beach and I there's been so many people from Maryland that I know that have moved and I think there's still more coming there's a little discussion about some other people you know that I know it's a great place to live.

SPEAKER_01 26:29

Yeah we're lucky we're blessed and to be able to go to the beach like I was telling you just you know yeah 10 15 minutes you're at the beach and yeah and you're saying that from highway ninety yeah living in life yeah 14 minutes to the sand absolutely and let me tell you something the sunrises these past few days beauty sunsets oh my gosh unbelievable uh sunsets so if you ever get a chance to either I just say try to just wake up super early one day and get there just before daybreak. It is a spiritual experience to watch the day break and then like a half hour later you see the sunrise.

SPEAKER_02 27:11

Yeah if you lived ocean front in a condo you're probably getting up a lot more often at before the sunrise is because it's something to do. Get your coffee, sit in front of your window and watch the sunrise.

SPEAKER_01 27:23

Yeah. And um if you ever get a chance to do it at the Pauli's Island beaches, um I don't know if you've ever been down to that beach but uh you know you kind of go over that little causeway they have a couple of beach accesses there and that beach is just amazing.

SPEAKER_00 27:41

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 27:42

Uh and we I I've been to a handful of beaches around the world um out of this country. You know I've been to Hawaii I've been to a couple of beaches in Hawaii. Nothing compares to Myrtle's beaches Myrtle beaches beaches I mean they were I don't know why. It's just I'm like ah our beach is way better than this. We went to Santa Monica I was like really this is a Pacific Ocean I was like this is not good. And then we went to St. Petersburg in Florida I'm like this is not good.

SPEAKER_02 28:13

Well the the nothing beats the sunsets like in Siesta Key or uh Florida are a little different because the sun appears to be so large. Here a great place for a sunset South Wacamall Drive the Quay that restaurant there at the marina now yeah I believe that's it used to be so many um different names they have really good food is that the one with the big tree in the deck there's a big tree and there's like a deck around no no this is a Wait then what are you talking about the Wacamall South Walkamall Drive which you've got where you've got the inlet on one side and the ocean on the other at South Wacamall go down to the Where is this?
