A Jingle that Gets Stuck In Your Head

There is this jingle that plays here that gets stuck in our heads.  It’s an ad for Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, so it may be played nationally, I don’t know.  What I do know that it plays here all the time, almost as frequently as political ads in an election year.  Once it sneaks into your brain, you are lost.  You will be singing it in car and the shower.

Myrtle Beach is somewhere between four and five hours away from Henry County.  Virginia Beach is around five hours from Henry County and the Outer Banks in North Carolina are closer to six hours, so considering a trip to Myrtle Beach is not unreasonable.

We haven’t been to the beach yet but we’d like to go.  The lure of the ad is strong but it looks like it has the potential to be crowded.  Anyone have any recommendations for low volume yet still touristy spots?
