As I sit here watching the wind and rain outside and listening to the thunder I find myself thanking God that this time my family and friends are for the most part out of the path of the storm. While I hope the areas still in harms way are suprised by the lack of damage, I just wanted to take a moment to try to get others to realize how fortunate we are in SC. I was here for Hugo in 89 and although I was young I remember the damage afterward. If you are out of the path of the storm please take time to Thank God and say a little prayer for those that are still facing the storm. Just a brief pause may give you the perspective needed to recognize just how Blessed we are. 08/26/2011

I am currently on Andrews town council and have lived in the Andrews/Georgetown county area all my life. With that being said let me describe to the best of my ability the town I call home. Andrews is a small town on the Western side of Georgetown county, SC. Home to about 3000 people the town was started in 1909 from 2 smaller communities, Rosemary and Harpers crossroads. Andrews has many qualities that make it an ideal place to live. Many Churches fill the town and on Sunday morning it is nice to see the townsfolk all in their Sunday best going to and from Church. Andrews also has some natural areas that c... 02/08/2011
