We got to Oregon Inlet Campground on the Outer Banks and discovered there are sand dunes behind us, between the campground and the Atlantic Ocean.

Raleigh, North Carolina To Catch Up With Friends
As we head out from South Carolina on the Travel Day, we saw there are so many trees along the road - just like Louisiana, Mississippi, etc, that you can’t see anything else.

Meeting Up With Friends In Florida
Florida’s Natural Visitor Center is in Lake Wales, Florida. The building is built to look like a “cracker” house. We walked in and everything is nice and clean and orderly. The lady at the counter offered a sample of 4 kinds of orange juice and varieties in the foundation. She said there is a video... Continue Reading →
