Hunting Island Day 3

Another great night's sleep. The air conditioner installed in the middle of last winter is doing everything we thought it would.  MUCH better sleeping this year than last.  Jane tried biscuits and gravy - something we seldom have at home - and it turned out great...gravy mix and canned biscuits would not taste so great at home!

We stayed around camp and the beach today - expecting rain at any moment but it never came.  It was a very windy and grey day but not a drop of rain.

As you can see from the above photos it was just us and the birds.  There were a few people but not many considering how full the campground is. 

Ben played around with his HD TV antenna that he constructed following instructions on the internet and he got 13 channels!  Pretty good - we will be able to watch the NCIS first shows of the season tonight!

We washed the sand off and got ready to meet Jane's cousin, Sara,  and her husband who live on Fripp Island at 5 PM.  They met us at the Camp Store and we drove into Beaufort for dinner at Plum's.  It was a small but nice restaurant on the waterfront.  We enjoyed visiting and had a very nice dinner as well.  Jane had crab cakes and Ben had crab stuffed flounder.  The crab cakes were good but did not quite match the ones in Maryland.

We toured around a bit and were back at camp by about 7:30 in time to watch NCIS.  It is getting dark about 7:30.
