I'm off to South Carolina

I'm leaving tomorrow for the Family Circle Cup on Daniel Island, right outside Charleston. Like last year, we'll be staying in Mt. Pleasant. Most, if not all, blogging for the next week will be about the tournament, but come by--I may have some other things up, too. And the goings-on at the tournament can be interesting, even if you're not a tennis fan.

For those of you who would like to watch some of The Family Circle Cup (the oldest all-women's tennis tournament in the U.S., and one of only two clay tournaments in the U.S.), ESPN2 will be showing the quarterfinals, semifinals and finals on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, April 13, 14 and 15--check your local listings. Patty Schynder is not having a very good season, but if she hangs on at least through the quarterfinals, you'll probably see us on television because our Patty banner is likely to be shown again.
