On the Way
Colleen, Jakobi and I left Thursday evening for South Carolina, driving til 2am and sleeping in the car at the Maryland House Rest Stop until 7am when we resumed driving. We stopped for breakfast in Richmond Virginia and found this local organic food store as an alternative to Whole Foods.
We continued on our journey to South Carolina and stopped at 5pm at Santee State Park in SC for the night.
The campground was pretty much empty and forested with hanging moss.
It was beside a huge resevoir and we swam in the hot water to escape the 90 degree heat.
Jakobi and I biked to this trail and hiked it at twilight.
The next morning we packed up and headed to Folly Beach.
Meanwhile in New Hampshire

The house at Folly Beach was big and beautiful with bedrooms for all and a screened in porch out back.
Everyone arrived and we got in some beach time between rain storms. Chuck bought us all pizza for dinner.
Day 2
The weather all week was a mix of rain, thunder storms and sun and we squeezed in beach time whe we could.

Day 4
Ambiana arrived on Tuesday from her backpacking trip in NH and the gang was all together again!
The house backed up on a swamp which was nice. Our house was in a quiet spot which was a stark contrast to last time when we were downtown.
We took a walk to the pier!
Day 5
We all went out to Lolos for seafood on Wednesday Night
Jakobi and her Aunties went to a sunset spot after dinner.
Day 6
Ahhhhh beach life.
Thursday was our night to cook dinner and we made burritos…
…and then celebrated Gaelen’s Golden Birthday (25 on the 25th of July) with cheescake and candles.
Day 7
Mornings were spent walking the beach or kayaking.
Ben joined us via Facetime with Eva Luna and Aveah
