The CK Daily – Making Memories in Hilton Head
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone’s having a great week so far! I’m back from our family vacation to Hilton Head and am trying to get back into a normal routine.
This year’s vacation was a bit different than most years as my nephew and two nieces (ages 9, almost 7, and 3) joined us! My nephew has come for the last several years but this was the first time for the girls! While having 3 kids on the trip certainly makes it less of a “vacation” and more of a “trip,” we had the best time!
Few things bring out more joy in kids than getting to dip their toes in the ocean and play in the sand! They loved their time on the beach, and they even got a little pool time too! We also visited a really fun and unique playground on the island at Lowcountry Celebration Park. The playground looks like a giant ship and there are even cannons that the kids can shoot mist out of. Super cool!
Aside from that we ate lots of good food, did a little shopping, rode bikes, went for walks, saw lots of alligators, and just enjoyed spending time together! Thankful for the time we had and the memories made… but I definitely feel like I need a vacation now! 😉

Learning Center Article – Solid Copper vs. Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) Ethernet Cables
Networking is expensive, and as a network grows, you can easily spend a fortune just on cables, much less everything else.
It’s normal to look for ways to save money, and one option that is growing in popularity is to use CCA cables for Ethernet connections. These cables are cheaper than traditional Ethernet cables, but they come with a catch.
