If you look at ChefHerb Production’s website, Herb says he is a certified Chef with over 20 years experience as an executive chef for large hotels and restaurants. He has a passion for southern cuisine especially BBQ pork, ribs, brisket, and chicken. Besides catering, Herb enters several area BBQ contests and teaches cooking classes.

Carmen and I went to the Fort Mill BBQ Company’s new restaurant last week and enjoyed the food and hospitality. The restaurant is located in the Stockbridge Commons shopping center where Lowe’s Foods is located at the corner of Highway 160 and Gold Hill Rd. they took the spot that used to be Sonny’s Dutch Mill Restaurant.When we walked in for lunch, the restaurant was busy and Bob greeted us with a warm welcome at the door. The restaurant is full of color and historical pictures of Fort Mill. The most predominate picture was a picture of the old barn that was located at the same corner that now is the shopping center. Bob explained part of the restaurants design concept is to feature Fort Mill.

A banner promoting a logo contest was hanging on a wall showing the logo winner and 2nd place winner. Bob’s wife is the principal of Nations Ford High school and they asked the Nations Ford HS art class to hold a contest to make the best logo for the Fort Mill BBQ Company. Bob also explained as he pointed to a wall that the winners of the all u eat BBQ challenge will be featured on the wall along with kids color drawings done while they eat. The restaurant has a large colorful menu board with many items to choice from.

There was a lot of hands on service for a order as you come in restaurant. I asked Herb’s wife why they decided to open their restaurant in this tough economy. She said their catering business has been doing well and their customers urged them to open a local restaurant.  Besides good cooking, the group did a great job making us and everyone else in the restaurant feel welcome. Herb, Bob, and family, we wish you good luck and we are glad to have you as a great restaurant choice in Fort Mill.Random Posts:

The 2008 city to city migration numbers are not as strong as 2007 but people are still relocating and the Charlotte Metro (includes Fort Mill SC) area is ranked 3rd according to a Forbes article.

Local Tega Cay friends recently pointed out a story to us that Lauren Sherman at Forbes published an article at the end of March titled “Ten Cities Where Americans Are Relocating”. The Forbes article ranked Charlotte 3rd most popular. I reported in March Charlotte Ranked the 7th fastest growing cities. So whats the difference?

We both used the US Census Bureau’s March 19th 2008 data. Forbes compared the 2008 population estimates to the previous year’s data to see which areas had grown the most, percentage-wise and so did I.  The difference is the Forbes article focused on cities over a million in population.

When you focus on cities over the million in populations the top ten 2008 fastest growing cities are:

1. Raleigh-Cary, NC
2. Austin-Round Rock, TX
3. Charlotte-Gastonia-Concord, NC-SC
4. Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale, AZ
5. Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX
6. San Antonio, TX
7. Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, TX
8. New Orleans-Metairie-Kenner, LA
9. Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, GA
10. Denver-Aurora, CO

The Charlotte metro are includes Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Lake Wylie, Rock Hill, all of York County SC. Of course I am somewhat biased but if you’re looking  for some of the best areas to live within the Charlotte metro area I would recommend the Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Lake Wylie area.

If you are considering to relocate to the Charlotte area, contact Carmen for more information about the Fort Mill SC area which is just a few miles south of Charlotte.

Connor McKemey is coming home to Tega Cay. Reid Lancaster who created and maintains Connor’s CaringBridge website has suggested posting red ribbons along the route to Connor’s home. See Reid’s May 3rd CaringBridge Journal request to local Tega Cay residents:

If you live in Tega Cay or Fort Mill, especially along Gold Hill Road or Shoreline Parkway we need your help. I want to give Connor a special welcome when he drives into town. It would be great for Connor to see many red ribbons on mailboxes, fences and businesses as he drives home. If you own a business or attend a church on Gold Hill, a message to Connor on your sign would be wonderful. His exact time of arrival is impossible to determine, so putting ribbons out and signs up Monday afternoon and Tuesday would be terrific!!!

Thanks for your prayers and support!

Reid

I took a look at the Catawba-Wateree Drought Management Advisory Group’s Low Inflow Protocol advisory history list. Here is a drought stage timeline of our area:

• June 2007 Stage 0
• July 2007 Stage 1
• August 2007 Stage 2
• October 2007 Stage 3
• January 2009 Stage 2
• April 2009 Stage 1

Stage definintions:  There are 5 stages – from stage 0 (a watch) to stage 4 (emergency – where water supply is in critical situation).

Here is a link to the CW-DMAG April press release with their review and recommendations about the drought conditions.

The bottom of the release states: Rainfall: Through March 31, 2009’s rainfall over the basin has been about 2 inches below long-term averages. The National Weather Service is predicting above normal precipitation for April. May rainfall predictions are for below normal rainfall.Random Posts:
