Weekend List: Winter-y things to do, including a blind date with a book, Boat & Sportsman Expo, and cool music venues

No surprise, the Grand Strand has slowed down in January. Restaurants are taking a break, the holiday frenzy is over.

January is a good time to reset.

While there aren’t many events, winter is a good time to explore local restaurants, shop local, enjoy a unique indoor activity, or go on an outdoor stroll.
