Alligator!

Huntington Beach State Park
Murrell's Inlet, SC

We are with a group of folks,
fondly known as the 'Carolina Clan'.
George and I are having the best time :-)

Today was spent by first
taking a nice bike ride
around the campground,
and the day use area on 
the other side.

We went down a path into
the freshwater lagoon
and I got to see a baby alligator!


We then came back across
 the causeway,
where we saw nice
snowy egrets


There were beautiful boardwalks
that jut out into the lagoon



After the nice ride,
we came back to the RV,
and gathered our chairs,
for the short walk to the beach.


It is so beautiful!


Mr Gnome was very happy
to get his toes in the sand..


..his feet in the water..


and play a bit :-)


Eventually the clan ended
up hanging on the beach..


..then at happy hour..


Bill was diving for the candy
in the bowl...it was Halloween, after all..



All this fun led eventually
to a campfire..




It has been a great few days
so far...
what's next!?
