We went camping at Hunting Island State Park, near Beaufort, SC the last week in May. Weather was great, and the bugs weren't too bad. Not like last year, anyway!!! We stayed 4 nights. I was up in time for a sunrise walk on the beach every morning, which was odd because I'm SO not a morning person! It was so peaceful and beautiful--a great way to start the day. Who needs sleep, anyway???
The campground was just full of wild animals that came strolling through our campsite at all hours of the day or night. They're not a bit shy! we got back from a walk about 3:00 one day and a one-eyed mother raccoon was trying to get into my beach bag--I had left an unopened package of crackers in it. I felt sorry for her because she was obviously nursing and went ahead and gave it to her. The deer would just about climb into your lap if they thought you had food. Especially this doe, the night I made dump cake in my Dutch oven. I wasn't about to share that! LOL
Benjamin learned to ride his bike while we were there. He's only had it a couple of months, but didn't really want to pedal it, until he saw all the other kids at the campground riding theirs. Mackenzie still prefers to just sit on hers and be pushed. ;)
