SATURDAY 9.21.19 SOUTH CAROLINA / NORTH CAROLINA

Today we left Charleston and made our way to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This is one of our favorite places. It just screams BEACH and Walt and I love the beach, in fact we met at the beach all those years ago.

We really enjoy driving over the causeways, this is usually lined with seagulls but today we only saw one.



This is a great ride because we know we aren't too far from the beach now.


It was an interesting trip to say the least. Long, for sure, as it took us nearly 8 hours to get here. We had one section of road that a tractor trailer made very interesting. We don't know if he was drunk, on drugs, falling asleep at the wheel or exactly what was going on but he was all over the road. Both lanes and the shoulder! It was bad enough that cars and other trucks were doing their best to get around him and away from him! I even called 911 to give our location on I-95 and to let highway patrol know that this driver was on the road. After what seemed an eternity, we were able to get past him without incident.

We finally pulled into the campground after a B & P run. (Budweiser & Pepsi) Once parked we didn't want to have to go out again today.


We were able to get the very last spot available in this campground. We're in the Kitty Hawk RV park which is located right across the street from the beach/ocean.


We are crammed in here like sardines but we love it here! I'm sure a lot will be pulling out tomorrow, at least we are hoping so. There are a lot of kids here today and we're thinking they all have to go back to school and will be leaving, at least we are hoping so.





Walt is looking forward to getting some fishing in and I want to see ALL the lighthouses here. And Boss, well Boss wants to go anywhere we're going and do whatever it is we're doing.


The weatherman says we're going to have a beautiful week here on the Outer Banks. Let's just hope the fish are biting!
