Last walk around the park

Tomorrow (Tuesday) we’ll head north. But for now, we’ll take in more of the warmer weather. 

Pics from our last hike around the park. It was a cloudy day in the morning, then cleared up later in the day 



Thought this was interesting as we walked through the nature trail. Need to remember to ask Linda if they have these birds and whether they drill holes in a straight line. 





This is a live oak tree. Learned that the salt from the sea and the wind make these trees and other trees and bushes bend along the beach. 


Biked one last time into South Myrtle Beach. Nice bike lanes. Then a last fire before heading north.

Wrestling begins

This is why we came to Myrtle Beach ... wrestling for Nathan. Two of his Brookville teammates also qualified - Cayden Walters and Owen Reinsel. 



Nathan had a good day. Won both matches, 7-6 against Francisco Valle from GA and 4-2 against Sebastian Garibaldi from NY. 

Here are some shots that Jillian took:

Exploring around Myrtle Beach Campground

Ahhhhh, this is the perfect time to be here in Myrtle Beach - warm but not hot. So glad grandson, Nathan was invited to the Super 32 here. 

The campground is huge, over 300 acres with over 300 camping spots. But a portion of the campground is maintained with trails as it was before it became a camping Mecca. Had a nice hike through the wooded area. 













And then to finish off our walk ... a walk on the beach. 


We wanted to see where the venue was so we packed the dogs in the bike trailer and off we went. 





It was about 7 miles one way to the venue but it was flat and easy riding. 

Wrestling starts Saturday.

Headed to Myrtle Beach

After a long drive, we made it to Myrtle Beach SP. The campground is very close to the beach. Our camper is about 1/2 block away. 

Just in time for a short walk on the beach and watch the sunset. 






Dogs are allowed on the beach since it’s after Labor Day. They enjoyed those new smells. 

We’ll see what tomorrow brings. Andrea, Nathan and Jillian arrive tomorrow so I’m sure it will be busy.
