This Fall we're heading back out west. COVID will be in our thoughts as we plan for adventures while we stay safe! Our plans are to head first to Colorado, then zip over to Utah. Lots of hiking and biking are planned along our route.

A week at Hunting Island, SC

The week's almost over and we haven't been swamped by the ocean.  What a great campsite only feet from high tide.  Tonight we plan to have a bonfire while watching the stars come out over the waves. 

Have watched numerous sunrises over the Atlantic and have taken beach walks through the beach tree debris.  Used our bikes to check out the nature center and the many trails through the pines, palmettos, and palms.  We even took a craft class and made dream catchers for better sleep!

Drove into Beaufort, which before the civil war was a wealthy town from king cotton .  It is here in Beaufort that the confederacy was born at the "secession" house. Took an excellent walking tour lead by Jon Sharp through the town.   Considering the wars, the fires, and the hurricanes, many of the antebellum summer homes are still intact and quite magnificent.  Have you seen "The Big Chill"? Filmed here along with many other movies.

PS  Driving through the streets of Beaufort in the RV --  watch out for those low clearance live oak branches!
