at the beach


We hit the jackpot with this state park campground. It's an absolute gem in the middle of this city. It's extremely well maintained and has its own beachfront. We are soooooo pleased to be here.

Anyway, today was a very chillax kinda day. We leisurely woke up, had a very relaxed breakfast,  then proceeded to check out the main boardwalk at Myrtle Beach. The beach itself is gorgeous and of course the boardwalk is a tourist attraction or "trap". It must  be jam packed in the summer time but today it was super calm and quiet, only a few die hard kids  in the water and the odd fisherman or two trying to catch the big one! 

Decided it was time to explore a little so we headed off towards Murrells Inlet just south of our campsite. It's a quaint fishing  village, now mostly known for "Restaurant Row"...a cluster of award winning seafood and BBQ restaurants on Main Street. We pulled up behind a church and had a picnic lunch, ti was most delightful.
As usual , we always check our geocache app to see if we can hunt one down before we leave. As luck would have it , there's one right in this parking spot. Mission accomplishment ....found signed it and decided to hop on  our bikes and hunt some more. .....so off we went....we found 3/5. One in particular was a very touching geocache tribute to 911. An original beam from the Twin Towers was erected to honor all affected.

Spent the rest of the day walking to the pier and hangin' out at the beach. We also enjoyed this destination very much. It has something to offer for all tastes. Boardwalk, nature trails, etc, but most of all, the ocean.!!!

sending hugs to all
