Evenings


Evenings are one of our favorite times at the beach. As soon as we finish dinner the kids are downstairs waiting for us while we finish cleaning up so we can walk down to the end of the island. Our location is great because we can get to the very end of the island where it is just dune and vegetation with an awesome view of Morris Island and the lighthouse. No houses since ours is the last one at that end of the beach and it is nice to have some privacy.
We all look forward to the walks and many treasures can be found. This year we found a starfish which is something new. There are plenty of jelly fish, crabs, sand dollars, and other fish that have washed up. We never know what we will find!

Waiting under the house watching the tide come in.

 The moon was full and gorgeous all week!

 We found 3 Loggerhead Nesting sites, endangered and very protected on the beach.



Freshly showered before dinner and our walk, collapsing into bed is a piece of cake!


Kyle really loves his room. He has one side of the upstairs to himself overlooking the ocean with his own bathroom. Not too much to complain about!
