Spent the past few days in and around Columbia, S.C. for the FLW www.FLWOutdoors.com Forrest Wood Cup championship.
You can find my coverage for that event here and here (click on the “learn” tab).
Between four days of tournament coverage I’ve had an opportunity to see some of Columbia, the host city.
One of the best things about visiting a new city is that you arrive with no preconceived notions or prejudices as where the “bad” parts of town might be. So you go wherever you want in complete comfort. Some might consider this naive or even foolhardy. It’s actually refreshing.
I haven’t seen
all of Columbia but I’ve seen as much as I could. It’s a lovely southern city, filled with polite, friendly people and interesting places, like the Al-Amir restaurant.
