This article contains a couple of different views of Myrtle Beach, which is located in northeastern South Carolina. First, there are a few shots from an early September sunrise along the coast. After that there are some shots of one of the few historic sites in town. The train depot is the place through which virtually all of the materials used to build the town were transported.
