This is Dispatches from Myrtle Beach with Charles Neal and my son, Link, from Good Mythical Morning. How you doing, Link? I’m doing good, Dad. Good to see ya. Yeah, long time no see. I know. I’m telling you. Yeah, I’ve been, uh, I’ve been, uh, you know, I’ve been on a little vacation. This is our first since, uh, since I got back. Do you notice anything different about me? Well, uh, uh, you couldn’t hear me when you came in and I said, Well, you look like you might have a suntan. That’s right. I got a suntan dad. Just dedicated to you in honor of you and your permanent suntan. Permanent. I mean, my suntan, there are years that I won’t have a suntan. Dependent on what type of vacation and how, you know, well, I don’t know if you know how suntans work, but how much I’m in the sun. Oh, yeah. This is the first time I got a bonafide, like, show up and people see me and they’re like, Oh, man, you got some sun. First time that’s happened in a number of years. But you, you never give your skin an opportunity to be unsuntanned, I don’t think. Yeah, that would be correct. Yeah. Yeah, I went, I had to go to the doctor the other day, I had a little episode with one of my big toes, and it was my fault. I kind of Okay, let me hear about it. I kind of clipped it a little too close. Oh, dad! You clipped your toenail too close? Well, I mean on the side, where it goes down the side. Eww! And then, then I pulled the meat out of it. Eww! And then I said, well, it’ll heal up. And then I, cause I, and I put some peroxide on it and put some alcohol on it. Well, this went on for about two weeks and it was red streaks running down it. And it was sore. I couldn’t even hardly put a pair of shoes on. And, uh, so I finally said, you know, maybe I ought to go to the doctor. And I did and they gave me a And before this gets to the suntan thing, this, I went to see the PA and, uh, she get, she gave me some antibiotic and she said, now you don’t need to be out in the sun with this antibiotic. And I looked at her and I said, look at this skin. I said, does it look like I’m not out in the sun anyway? I mean, you see what I do for a living. She said, yeah. You still don’t need to be out in the sun for the next week while you’re taking this. You’ll get some blisters or something. I said, I don’t blister with antibiotics or nothing else, but I said, I will be careful. And my toe is almost healed. So thanks to her and soaking it in Epsom salt. And the antibiotic, I, I’m in, I’m in good shape now. So, uh, you need to, you need to just go and get yourself a pedicure. I’ve started doing that. Christy was like, why don’t you go with me, get a pedicure. They like do a massage of your feet and they’re like, do all this stuff to it. You don’t even have to bend over and screw things up like you did. You open it up? Yeah, well, you know, that would be correct too, but, and I, I have done that with Nancy, and I liked it because they didn’t just do my feet, they, they wrapped these things up my legs with my, kind of, you know, I got some pretty good healthy muscles on my legs, and boy, it makes them things. Oh, Lord, it makes you feel good. See, there you go. So, you know, I’m I’m, I’m, I might need to get rid of your toenail clippers or whatever type of hatchet you’ve been using. And we, hey, neither one of us have to wait for our wives to go and get a pedicure. We can do it without a spouse escort. We can do that. We’re, we’re, we’re manly enough to go get our own manicure. I mean, pedicure. That. Yeah. Well, the way my fingernail, my finger nips. I don’t get a, I don’t get a pedicure. I don’t, I don’t see the point in that. No, not the way. ’cause I, most of the time I got so much dirt up under mine sometimes. Some stuff I do, they, they don’t wanna see ’em. Well, maybe you do need to go. Yeah. No, but, but maybe you also need to get a, have you had a, um, since we’re on the subject, a, um, skin cancer assessment. Like, uh, they look at your skin and make sure you don’t have anything of suspicious quality. Uh, we, we go once a year to the dermatologist. Okay. All right. Good. And I take all my clothes off. Dad, don’t make it weird. No. Hey, you got to tell you, they got to look everywhere. So you don’t have to seem so excited about it. I went from making sure you did it. And now I’m like, man, maybe I don’t need to encourage him. I don’t know. As a matter of fact, I think we got to go in about. another month and get it, get it done. I’m due as well. We always do that in October. Have they ever found anything? Like had to remove anything? They, they found some stuff, but they never had to remove nothing. Why are you, you’re still grinning. I’m talking about spots. No, no, no spots, no moles, no nothing they had to take off. All right. That’s good. That’s good to know. Cause you, you have accumulated a lot of sun hours over the decades. Yeah, yeah. Uh. Many decades. So we gotta catch up about our trips, don’t we? So me and you both kinda been shaggin around the world, hmm. It’s time for Shaggin Around the World. I’ve been in one spot. I don’t know how many spots you’ve been in. Uh, I don’t think I’ve really been, but One place, but mine was just for a week. So I’m only cause yours was about a month or more. So I’m going to let you go first and tell all our Myrtle beast what you did for your vacation. Well, you know, I was in a Wahoo. Never been to Oahu. I’m very impressed with Oahu. Of course, flew into Honolulu. And then, uh, we stayed on the east side of the island. So it was like a 30 minute drive across the island to the other side. And then, um, which gave us, uh, A better trajectory to get to the, to visit the North shore. If we wanted to see the surfing Mecca of the North shore, even though it’s not winter when that Really kicks into high gear. I mean, having gone to Kauai, Maui, and now Oahu, um, Kauai is like the most jungly and the least developed. So arguably the most dramatically beautiful across the board. Maui, you know, we went together. I, I was not overly impressed. It’s like they cleared a lot of it for pineapples in the past. I think it’s like, and there’s like one. Big vol, volcanic mountain that kind of defines it. And we didn’t really go on the road to Hana. So I can’t really talk about how, I mean, I think that would have been the most beautiful part of Maui, which we didn’t see. So what I have to compare it to, Oahu is like, but well, Maui is more developed. A lot of resorts and of which we stayed in one. Oahu is kind of like more developed. Than Kauai, but also has more beautiful mountainous areas, and they’ve done a concerted effort over the years to keep like hotels and resorts Um, off the east coast and the north shore, like a majority of the island is they’ve regulated away like the larger places that like tourists would stay in. So, and then if you want to stay in a house, you’ve got to rent it for a month. They’re like really trying to keep people out. In fact, I heard that they’re trying, at least in Kailua, the town we were staying in, they’re trying to extend the minimum. Rental period to three months, you know, just to kind of keep the the riffraff out riffraff like me out of there tourist So I was fortunate to you know to that. We we we got a house In an area that was like, you know, I kind of started to feel a little bit like a local, you know, hey I’m i’ma make a run to the coffee shop. I’m gonna make a run to the grocery store They had i’ma go i’ma go eat some of that leftover barbecue from our favorite barbecue restaurant all that type of stuff It was uh, it was it was a lot of fun to pretend to be Like I lived there now. I don’t, I don’t think anybody fell for it, but it was, it was nice. I, I think it’s, I would like to go back to Kauai, but I don’t know. I, I, I think I’m most likely to go back to Oahu now, based on that experience, especially if I can get back over there in Kailua. You still got to go. You and Lincoln, y’all went scuba diving. Yeah, we did. Um, Lincoln came for about, he, yeah, he came for about a week with two of his friends and then we worked it out to where, since they don’t scuba dive, they, they went back, but then he stayed a couple more days and we got the next level of scuba certification. We are now advanced open water scuba divers. Oh my goodness. So yeah, we took out. A couple of days just to go scuba diving and kind of get that certification. We can now go down instead of just a depth of 60 feet, we can go down to a hundred feet and we can also use, um, we’re nitrox certified, so we can have like a, we know how to use a, an enriched tank of oxygen so we can stay at the bottom longer because once you get down to a hundred feet, you might only be down there for 15 minutes. The scuba diving was cool. We um, we went, we were able to go down to A, a World War Two plane that was crashed, that crashed into the harbor. It didn’t have an ejection seat. So the, um, the pilot stayed in the plane and like crashed it into the water and then he survived and it sunk and then the Navy. Moved it out from where it was closer to shore. They moved it further out into the bay. Um, I don’t know if they did it just to make it a scuba diving site or for other reasons, but now it’s like one of the most exciting scuba sites that you can visit, but it’s at a hundred feet. So you had to get that extra certification to be able to do it. And so it was like a, a one seater. Um, it’s called a Corsair plane. And, um, you, were you able to go down there and like swim all around it? And like, that was really cool. Like I love seeing fish and I love seeing coral, but like my favorite thing is like. I feel like I’m exploring something mysterious. And like, you know, it was, it felt kind, it’s kind of wild because you’re, you start descending from the boat and you’re like, okay, 10, 20 feet down. And then you look down below you and you’re just, you see this plane like way down there, and then you’re just slowly drifting towards it. And you get all these, Amazing views of this thing and then you finally get down to it and you’re like Lincoln and I are like swimming around it and we did that we did another wreck dive So i’d never done any wreck dives. They there were there’s a number of vessels that they’ve sunk for the purpose of Scuba diving. And there was one that was like upside down so you could swim underneath it and then go through like the cabin. There were all all these fish in there. And a lot of the fish would be swimming upside down because they were oriented to the boat somehow. It was strange. We had, We had a good time. We also saw a lot of sea turtles at another place, like swimming with sea turtles, not touching them, not bothering them. But like, I would just be like floating in an area, like hovering, watching a sea turtle get cleaned by these fish that like eat the stuff off of it while it’s like sleeping there. And then all of a sudden another sea turtle just starts swimming right in between me and Lincoln. Like, I don’t care about you guys. And then, um, we saw a white tipped shark taking a little nap. He was probably six, seven feet long, not dangerous. What kind of shark? A white tipped reef shark. Okay. That their faces are, uh, I mean, scary, menacing. So he was like sleeping there. Facing a turtle, like almost nose to nose. They were both just kind of chilling out, taking a nap, but then the shark has to move in order to keep breathing, I guess. So like I made eye contact with him and I got a little freaked out, but the scuba diving is better in Maui. I gotta say, except for the wrecks, which they may have those at Maui, like the volcanic. cathedrals that we were able to like swim through and all that. I mean, that was one of the best dives I’ve ever done in Maui. So I would, I gotta, I gotta give them their credit there. And I know you want to be the mayor of, uh, Maui. So I got to put in a good word for him. Yeah. I can tell you more about my trip, but I want to hear some about yours too. But you, you got to tell me, you know, being a veteran, you, and you know, didn’t y’all go to, um, Pearl Harbor? Yeah, we did. We, um, We went to Pearl Harbor, like in the first few days we were there. And, um, I didn’t know what to expect. They had a film, like a 20 minute film that we like watched there, which gave everybody context because like, I can’t answer all the questions the kids are asking and they don’t want to hear it from me anyway, but then we, we, we made a reservation to go out on the USS Arizona, which is. The, the sunken battleship from the attack that’s still there in the harbor. And there’s parts of it that are sticking out of the water. Have you been to it? Yeah, I’ve been there being Nancy, but so 2013, they orient us before we go out there that, Hey, this is, this is a tomb, you know, the ship hasn’t been moved. And all the. Off all the soldiers that perished in the sinking ship are still there, so you take a boat there, and then you get off the boat, and they’ve built this cool, um, it’s like a walkway, but it’s almost like an art piece as well, and you can look through the middle of it, and there’s like. It’s, it’s a shrine and a dedication to the, to the fallen soldiers that are, you know, buried in the ship beneath it. So it was a very solemn tour, you know, they oriented everybody to like, Hey, be respectful, be quiet, um, use a whisper voice and don’t be cutting up kids. And I think wasn’t, there’s, you know, there’s not a whole lot of soldiers that were at Pearl Harbor that. Are still living that live through it and when they die If they were there at pearl harbor, they get to go back and be buried. That’s right down in the ship and the last Soldier who was eligible who was serving during the attack Passed away, I think within the last year definitely within the last two years So yeah, he actually elected to not be buried there is what they said. So but there’s not anybody else that’s Eligible to, uh, to have their remains taken down there in a ceremony. But yeah, it was cool that they did that. Yeah. So yeah, that wasn’t, that wasn’t a, a party boat, but we did go on a, a, a party boat later. We did a, a Sunset ma Tai cruise outta Waikiki. For like three hours. And it was a bonafide sailboat and it was me and Christy and Lando and, uh, our friend, Nicole, one of Christy’s college friends came and visited. And so we were drinking Mai Tais on this sailboat, watching the sunset with, uh, a wedding party of like 20, 25 people from, uh, outside of, uh, outside of LA. So I kind of. I had on, I had on my yacht outfit and, uh, Lando was like, I kind of wish he would button it up. I was like, nah, man, I’m, I have my Mai Tai, I got my shirt unbuttoned. I’m, I’m, and I’m like making friends, making friends with a wedding party, you know, and like the captain is playing music and, um, at a certain point, song starts playing. I’m like, hold on, what? Is this, and then Christy’s like blank. They’re playing my OCD. They were playing one of our songs. So somebody, the captain had caught wind of our YouTube channel and was, was adding us into the DJ mix. I said, well, he should have played, I’m on vacation, but he played the wrong one. But, and a few people there noticed this, but, uh, knew who I was, but so I got it. I got the party boat experience too. You, and you say, and you would, you would just kind of a half wedding crasher. So, right, right. Yeah. It was kind of, it wasn’t like the reception. It was just like, they were there for a few days. This is one of the things they were doing. So I paid for a ticket. I didn’t crash anything, but yeah, there was a little bit of that vibe. Why do you want to learn a new language?

Yeah, a place up where, uh, Beach Mountain and Sugar Mountain’s at, which you are very familiar with. Mm hmm. And, uh, and we stayed, uh, we got up there on a Monday and just got to rest and relax and have a little vacation. And then, uh, Brandy and, uh, Paul and Cameron and Jabe and, uh, God, I Well, you got to remember all the grandkids now. Got to remember, uh, it’ll, it’ll come to me in a minute. And the little girl, I can’t, anyway. Little girl, she’ll get a name when she gets older. Yeah. But when you remember it. And Brandy had kind of, We had planned some stuff when we were coming and, uh, uh, so we went whitewater rafting. Whitewater rafting? At the edge of the world. That sounds dangerous. We drove into Tennessee from North Carolina, the Nattahallee River. Okay, yeah, Nattahallee. Yeah, Nattahallee. So what class rapids are we talking about here? Well now I told ’em when, before we got on there that I had been on the golly twice and they said, well, you won’t see nothing like that. But they was class four, maybe a class five, category threes. Okay. Uh, so it was fun. So anybody fall out? Uh oh yeah. Oh, really? Oh yeah. Because why you falling outta class three? We went down the river link and the place, and then we stopped and they fed us lunch. And after they fed us lunch, he said we’re going back up the river. You walk up here, carry a raft with you. You can turn it around sideways and four or five of you can get on the edge. And we’re gonna go down through this category three again with the guide guiding us down through there and they were gonna be taking pictures and stuff. Okay. So, uh, me and Brandy And Jabe, and I almost thought the little girl’s name, uh, God, I can’t believe it. And so, it was me, and it was Brandy, Jabe, me, and Jabe. Cameron and Paul, five of us, on the edge of it. Okay. And they said now when you With your feet hanging like over the edge? Feet hanging over the edge, all of us, and said when you go down in this swale, you need to kind of lean back. Oh, that didn’t Oh lord. We got in this first swale, And Brandy didn’t lean back, and she was going off the raft, so she had Jay by the hand, and she said, I ain’t doing this by myself, and had, then they had me in the middle, and here we went, and Cameron went going, and he turned us loose, so all three of us was in the water. Holding hands. Well, no, I was, and they was hollering at me, said, And they had told us what to do when you fall in the water. It’s kind of like the other place. Float up, stick your feet up in the back, and Turn around where you can float and go down and we’ll pull you back up in the boat out of you. Life jacket. Okay. Oh, but here we go. Here we go. Over the edge. So this is the moment here. I’m telling you. So I can see that they’re holding your hand and pulling you in. And you can see that Cameron was turning the loose. Yep. That’s good that they caught that moment. I was kind of having a hard time, but Link, let me tell you something. I, we went to the galley and that was some kind of cold water, but this is the coldest water I’ve ever been in in my life. Really? I mean, I think they said it was between 48 and 52 degrees. Woooo! No, that is cold now. I mean, if you get in 60 degree water, that could, you could get an ice bath of 60 degree water. Well, this and then in some places we get up to like 58. Uh huh. So, so we went back up there and we did it again. Same thing? Same thing. Did you lean back? Yeah, I leaned back this time. We didn’t get through. But you could ride the front of the boat. With just two of you and go down through it too. And I’d been, I got so cold in that water and said, I said, I’ve had enough of this. I’m done. Um, all you young people enjoy yourself. I, you know, I thought about, I told Nancy, I said, you see these people that do that ice book. Ice Bucket Challenge and pour that water over them. Yeah. That ain’t, hey, that would be a piece of cake from what this water is. I mean, it was, uh. Well, when you can’t even water that cold, your, your, your arms and legs don’t want to work. Well, I’m telling you, I’ve had a time with my feet a little bit, getting all, for a day or so, getting the, Circulation. Sensation. Yeah, sensation back where they kind of felt normal for, but then, then you floated on down the river and they had some places they stopped where you could jump out and go swimming in the water. I said, have y’all lost y’all’s mind? I said, and Paul jumped out of the raft and jumped in the water and he got right, he won’t but a minute. And Jabe jumped in too, and they didn’t stand there long, Paul said if you think that water was cold up yonder, jump out and get in this hole here, he said that’s got to be the coldest water I’ve ever seen in my life, I said no thank you, that’s alright. I’m good. I’m good. So, uh. And was this afterward to prove that you all survived? Yeah, this was after. Well, this was before we left. Okay. In front of the bus. One of the buses we were going to get on. That’s cool. That’s cool that you did that. But we had a great time and we went, then we, uh, that took all day for that. And then the next day we went up to, uh, Grandfather Mountain and went up there and walked across the bridge. Oh. Did you say I took a hang glider off of this? And they, listen, this was the neatest thing, they ain’t, nobody’s, they did away with jumping off a hang glider on Grandfather Mountain in, I believe they told me 1999 or 1998. But they were having a special thing that weekend, and they had hang gliders set up all up around the mountain, going up through there. And then they had one in the, Park up there where you could stop and go see it. And I went up there and talked to the guy and I said, Did you ever get to jump off the top of Grandfather Mountain on your hang gliding? He said, Oh no, I’m too young for that. And he said, And, uh, I said, well, I did it for, uh, about three years from like 1971 to 1974. And he said, man, you are, you are, you are, you are a lucky man. You’re a lucky man. He said, I wish I could have been able to do that. And me and him talked a little while. But that was neat. You could get strapped in a hang glider and they showed you how to turn and glide. Oh, that’s cool. But they still got three places you can go up and go hang gliding. You know, I think that I I guess I had, I mean, it’s obvious. I got my adventurous spirit from you because I was walking up and down the beaches, well, the beach, uh, that we were on and It was consistently day, night, every single day, windy. And so they had the, all these wind sports, including, um, wing foils. Now, I don’t know if you’ve ever seen this, but it, you know, wind surfing, it’s like a sailboat, but it’s attached to a surfboard. Yeah. Well, you do that. No, I’ve never, I’ve never done that, but this is different. This is an inflatable wing that’s like six foot. In six foot wingspan, maybe seven, you could get an eight foot one and you just hold it above your head. It’s not attached to anything. And then you, you get up and you stand on a, a large buoyant surfboard that then when you get up enough speed, it’s got, it’s got a fin and a foil down there and it comes out of the water and you’re hydrofoiling. Oh, on top of the water, you’re flying over the water using the power of the wind to control your wing. And it’s not much different than, I don’t know. It’s basically like hang gliding, just like a couple of feet above the ocean. And I was determined to learn how to do it. I mean, I, I gave the whole spiel on ear biscuits, so I won’t do it here, but I will tell you that like I took eight hours worth of lessons and beat my body. And I, I barely started to learn how to do it. I’ll say that, but I guess I have you to blame. I just, I, I was, I just knew I could do it. I was just watching them do it for days. And I was like, I have to learn how to do this. That’s pretty neat. But I would also take like, I wanted to, I had a vision to go on a lot of hikes. And, um, so I picked an easy one. And then we went out there with just me, Lando and Christy. And. We couldn’t park where I wanted to park, and we had to drive all the way back down and park on the side of the road, and it looked like it was more of a ditch, and we might get stuck, and then we got out of the car, and I’m getting the dogs fixed on their harnesses, and then Christy remembers that we didn’t bring any bug spray, and I’d been hearing enough feedback about where we should park, and where we shouldn’t park, and how much bugs it was gonna be, and I was like, you know what, We’re not doing this. And I, I started taking the harness back off the dog and, uh, Christy and Lando started walking up the road to get to the path and they were like, no, come on, we’re going to go. I’m like, you know what? Um, we’re not doing this. She’s like, well, I’m doing this for you. And I’m like, exactly. Yeah. I don’t need you to do this for me. I can do this at another time. Somebody who’s not doing it just for me. And, and I can have bug spray and I can have, I might not bring the dogs. And so, uh, I stood, I stood, I stuck to my guns and we got back in the Jeep and we got out of there and. I was like, I’m not mad at you. I’m just, this is for the best. And she came around and then we, you know, we rode around and we found, we found an amazing, uh, Hawaiian donut truck called Malasadas. And everybody was happy at that point. But I went back with just Lando and I did take the dogs. Cause we had done by this point, we had done a couple of more involved hikes. So I’m like, we’re going to go back to this hike. It’s a 30 minute hike to this waterfall. You park in a country club parking lot, for God’s sakes. So we did that. And then we’re like 30 minutes in and I’m not seeing a waterfall. And I’m like, Well, it’s still a nice trail, but I think maybe maybe it’ll be right around here and then I realized I had a My phone had the trail map on it and I could track where we were And so I did find I was like, oh, yeah We’re on the trail and here’s the waterfall, but damn if it didn’t way over here And so and I was like we went a little too far So we turned around and we go off the beaten path into a smaller path that right here on my phone It tells me this is the right one and then we’re going deep into the jungle And I And Jasper is just off leash and he’s, he’s up there with Lando and I got Jade on the leash because she won’t come when she’s called. She’s got to stay on the leash. And then we get to this point and I look and like Lando’s holding on to ropes and climbing the side of a jungle mountain. And then Jasper’s like, just like scrambling up there behind him. And so I’m like, well, I pick up Jade. I’m holding her in my arm. I’m grabbing the rope with the same arm and the other arm and trying to, I mean, it’s like almost vertical and there’s, it’s just muddy and where it is. Lando wasn’t complaining. So I was like, we’re going to do this. And then we get, we get to the top of the rope, no easy task. And then I look in. Lando’s on another rope. One rope leads to another rope leads to another rope, and I’m like, this must just be a shortcut. It was fun, but we are not coming back this way. I can’t come down these ropes with these dogs. I don’t know how to do it. And, um, we kept going and going. It was kind of getting dark, and I was kind of getting nervous, and, but I saw the, we were gonna get to the waterfall, and we did get to the waterfall, and when we did, I look up, and the, I saw Uh, a family, two daughters, a wife and a husband, the dad, they are already there. I’d seen them back at the parking lot and they were asking me where to go. And I said, well, this is the way to go. And then I started going. I didn’t, I didn’t want to hike with strangers. So we just kind of booked it. And I figured they would follow me loosely. Well, they beat me there because they took the right trail that it took. Oh, they’re like, we’ve been here. Oh, we’ve been here for like 20 minutes. It’s like a 30 minute, you know, 15, 20 minute walk to get here. And I was like, if I would have brought Christy to those ropes, she would have, she’d have wrapped it around my neck and hung me with it. I mean, she would, she would have killed me. So I, I listened to my intuition and we turned back the first time. And then Lando and I did not go back the way we came. We followed the, we followed the family back out. I was like, well, damn, if this wasn’t a lot easier. But it’s so beautiful there. And we, we had a lot of adventures like that. So I had a lot of fun. I mean, part of me didn’t want to come back. Part of me thinks he could live there forever. Yeah. I’m envious of you. Like I walk in the dogs on the beach every morning. Like you can go out there on the beach any, anytime you want. Yeah. But we had a good time. It seems like we had our, we both had our share of adventure. Well, Link, I mean, you had a great trip. Mm hmm. I, me and Nancy and all the kids and everybody, we, we had a great trip, and, you know, it was fun having all y’all here with us today, and we’ll be back next week for another one.
