Affectionately known as "a love letter to South Carolina’s capital city," Hotel Trundle is like taking a step back in time. From it's eclectic 1920's Art Deco styling, this 41-room jewel in the heart of downtown Columbia is a masterpiece created by local artists, craftspeople, and business owners.  Wrapped in color, creativity, and charm, Hotel Trundle is a marriage of three historic buildings: The ROSE TALBERT BUILDING was one of Columbia’s first mixed-use developments, with first floor office space and apartments above. It was also to the home to Rose-Talbert Paints for over four decades. The POWELL FURNITURE BUILDING has had a number of occupants and owners over the last nearly 100 years, including the Knights of Columbus, Kirby Electric Service Co., Sears Roebuck, and Jenkins Auto Parts. Lastly, what is now the main entrance of Hotel Trundle, the WESTERN AUTO BUILDING appears very much as it did in the 1940's.

Showcasing exposed brick, stamped tin ceiling tiles, deep moldings, and custom wood trim, no two rooms look alike and offer it's guest a truly unique experience. From the artwork, to the furnishings, food and drink, and experience packages, Hotel Trundle is 100% local, featuring the best of South Carolina. Step out of the front entrance and you are immediately enveloped by Main Street's Historic District and it's ever changing sights and scenes. From farmer's markets, food and drink festivals, concerts, nightlife, and sports arenas, you are always within walking distance of your next adventure. 

With Valentine's Day only one week away, could you think of a more romantic, relaxing, and entertaining experience than a night (or two) bathed in the luxury and leisure of this historic hostel. Much more than a place to rest your head, Hotel Trundle is an experience... on that deserves to be shared.

On the Border - The Ultimate Eagles Tribute pulls it off as well as ANY great Tribute can, treating fans to an authentic concert experience while journeying through The Eagles songbook. The band covers every big hit, from ballads such as “Desperado” and “Lyin’ Eyes” to rockin’ hits such as “Life in the Fast Lane” and “Heartache Tonight” with such accuracy, that listeners may permanently confuse “On the Border” with the real Eagles!  It’s truly a masterful sound to witness for yourself.  Hitting major concert venues, casinos & festivals around the country, they created so much of a buzz, that in 2015 AXSTV’s hit show, “The World’s Greatest Tribute Bands” came calling for them to perform Live on TV at the famous “Whisky a Go Go” in LA.  

What sets this EAGLES Tribute apart from ANY other, is they were hand selected to emulate both the sound and overall feel each Eagles member.  They perform that particular Eagles member’s vocals & musical parts.  Their passion, showmanship and precise attention to replicating the details of the Eagles music, has earned them critical acclaim, name recognition and a very loyal following. Together, they reproduce the recordings of the Eagles catalog with stunning guitar work, multi lead vocalists and the 6 part harmonies have been said to capture the feeling of being at an actual Eagles concert!  

 "A good impersonation can be indistinguishable from the real thing, which is why method actors are no longer allowed to play dictators.  Although the Eagles have encouraged the world to “Take It Easy” for more than four decades, taking on the roles of the genteel Classic Rockers from Southern California is a tough task.  Not just any musician can nail the 5 part harmonies with the likes of Glenn Frey and Don Henley, or pull off the talk-box guitar solos of Joe Walsh.  But with dedication, 70’s costuming, a surplus of musical chops, and a shelf full of papier-mâché Grammys, On the Border: The Ultimate Eagles Tribute pulls it off, treating fans to an authentic concert experience while journeying through The Eagles’ songbook. The band covers every hit, from ballads such as “Desperado” and “Lyin’ Eyes” to rave-ups such as “Life in the Fast Lane” and “Heartache Tonight” with such accuracy, that listeners may permanently confuse On the Border with the real Eagles.  It’s truly a masterful sound of witness for yourself.”

January 25th is National Fish Taco Day. In the United States, Fish Tacos were once unusual to find outside of the San Diego area. Today, one can find fish tacos on Mexican and non-Mexican restaurant menus worldwide. 

According to Yelp reviews of "Real Mexico Restaurant Y Tienda" in Columbia, SC, customers cannot speak highly enough of their BAJA FISH TACOS. These tasty treats are made with fried beer-battered cod, cilantro-jalapeño coleslaw, chipotle mayo, and avocado, all wrapped within a warm, soft corn tortilla blanket. What better excuse could you find to give one a try than supporting this National Holiday?

Law Enforcement Officers have chosen a profession that puts their life on the line every, single day for their communities.  They’ve answered a call to public service that is demanding and all too often unappreciated.

From local, state, and federal, their duties command dedication. The jobs are often thankless and take them away from their families for long hours. Rarely do they know what their days have in store for them.

On National Law Enforcement Day, we have an opportunity to thank them for their service and offer a token of respect. Join J. King Real Estate in saluting America's Warriors of Domestic Warfare.

There are several ways to show your support. Send a note of thanks to your local, county or state police agency. Wear blue, turn your social media channels blue or shine a blue porch light to show your support. Share your support using #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay to share on social media.  

God Bless our Law Enforcement Officers and God Bless The United States of America!
