Also, I wouldn't be totally alone. I have (sort of) family there. This woman Pat and her husband, Bill. They're basically family to me, sort of second grandparents type deal. She babysat solely me from the age of 3 months until 10 or so years old. And I still am close to their whole family and they just made the move from MD to SC and love it. They're the reason I've been down there visiting a few times and fell in love with the whole vibe there. They live in Bluffton so I'd like to be semi-close to them. Charleston is about 2 hours away from them but that would work for me. I also have a friend who wants to move there with me so we would probably rent a place together! And yes, pet friendly towns are important to me!
lol. Actually, I would love to get another dog to add to my clan if I moved. I'm still living at home and it just... wouldn't be allowed right now, lol. They have a dog as well.
