Winter Excursion 6, Day 32

Moving Day! We got up around 0730 and took our time getting ready to move to Foster Creek RV Park at the Naval Weapons Station, Joint Base Charleston, Goose Creek, SC.
Only issue was changing the bad tire, but that only took a few minutes as I had help from our neighbor Mike.
We said our goodbyes to Mike and Bebe, they are headed to Edisto. We are jealous. We will miss Edisto this year due to our Hosting job in Georgia.
The spare made the trip fine and by 1400 we were all set in the new campground.

Tomorrow is a day off, this retirement day off thing is getting to be a habit..LOL
All is well in the Boss Camp. It should be a laid back week!

 



Winter Excursion 6, Day 31

We headed to the Kid's and Kiddo's house early as Brian and I are doing Christmas Decorations for the outside of their house. It took Brian and I most of the day, but it turned out great.
Rick took us all to brunch at Okra Grill in Mt. Pleasant. The food was excellent, we will go there again. We had Crab Cake Eggs Benedict. 
After brunch Nicole, Cath, Rick, and the Kiddos, went to Shem Creek to walk the boardwalk.
Here's Kennedy.
They spotted this little guy on the walk.
Brian and I headed back to the house to finish up the Christmas Decorations.
Nicole took her Dad to the airport to head back to Florida. When she got back Cath and I left for the camper. I think we will take the next few days off! It's been a super weekend!



Winter Excursion 6, Day 30

We spent the day hanging out at camp and relaxing. Did a little camper maintenance and took a few walks.
Spent the evening with our neighbors at our fireplace. Enjoyed a few appetizers, had some great conservation, a few toddies, and a warm fire.
Tony, our friend here at Buck Hall for the last few years stopped by after dark. He gave us some sea trout fillets and we gave him his annual jug of NY maple syrup. It's a perfect relationship!
The weather here continues to be great. We can't remember the last time we had any rain. It felt good today just to chill and as usual sleep will come fast.

Winter Excursion 6, Day 29

We woke up at the Kid's house with the typical "Too Much Thanksgiving Food Hangover". A few cups of coffee and a small piece of Pumpkin Pie and we were ready to start the day. Cath and I headed back to the camper around 1000. Spent the afternoon playing cards and enjoying the weather. Kaylee was happy to be back to the camper also.
A small dinner (LOL), a little TV, then off to bed. It's been a really fun Thanksgiving Holiday!

Winter Excursion 6, Day 28

Happy Thanksgiving!
The day started early when the Kiddos jumped into our bed to wake us up. Nicole made a great breakfast and then the day got started.
Rick, Kennedy, Kaylee, and I drove back to camp as I forgot to pack a few clean shirts for the two day stay at the Kids. Got this pic of Kennedy on the way.
Back at the house we got the turkey going on the grill and the girls prepped the rest of the meal.
We went to another Neighborhood Oyster roast around lunch time. The oysters were superb!
The meal came out perfect and we all sat down to it after Brain got home.


Afterwards we were all stuffed as usual, but managed to stay awake till about 2200. It was another wonderful day with family!


 

Winter Excursion 6, Day 27

We left the camper around 1000 and headed to McClellanville and picked up some fresh (just off the boat) shrimp for $5.99 a pound!
From there we head to the grocery store for some last minute Thanksgiving supplies.
At the Kiddo's house it was Thanksgiving prep day. We got the peel n' eat shrimp done, baked two pies, brined the turkey, started the stuffin', and cooked the giblets.
Nicole's Dad, Rick, and I did a few more last minutes errands.
In the evening we all packed up and headed to the annual neighborhood oyster roast. As usual a good time was had by all.
Back at the house we stayed up with Brian and Nicole until after 2300.
Tomorrow is the big day.

Winter Excursion 6, Day 26

We all slept in till 0800. We would have slept longer, but Brian's phone call woke us all up!
After breakfast the Kiddos worked on their Comic Strips. We took Kaylee out for a little walk. Wesley and his Friend Henry played some ball and then it was lunch time. After lunch we packed up all the Kiddos' stuff (I almost needed a moving van) and headed for home. It's been a fun three days.
Cath and I did some T-Day shopping and Nicole and I delivered the Oyster Table to the neighbor's for the Wednesday Night Oyster Roast.
Back at camp I got a nice pic of the sunset, it lit up the whole sky.
Cath and I had yummy steak dinner, watched a little TV, and then went to bed. We will sleep very good tonight!
