Hilton Head Island

May 7, 2022 / / 0 Comments

On Saturday, we went to the Island and drove around “Sea Pines”. Sea Pines is a 5,000-acre community that encompasses private neighborhoods as well as a resort, forest preserve with horse stables, PGA Tour golf course, marina and town center with shopping and dining options. It’s the most popular estate on the island and just $9 will get you into Sea Pines so you can explore all the fun activities (but no eBikes are allowed). Very beautiful and expensive.

We visited the Harbor Light Tower Museum which overlooks Harbor Town Golf Course – Famous for many golf tournaments over the decades. The red-and-white-striped Harbour Town Lighthouse is one of the most famous landmarks on Hilton Head. The lighthouse, built more than 40 years ago, offers tours and a spectacular view from above.

We then went to the other end of Sea Pines to have a beverage at the Salty Dog Cafe.

Kingsley Plantation

May 4, 2022 / / 0 Comments

We visited the Kingsley Plantation outside of Jacksonville, Florida (a national park) and took the audio tour of the property. It is a very interesting story in history; a little different than what we think of the history books. A humbling experience to see how the slave life was when Florida was owned by the Spanish and later when Florida became a United States Territory.

Here is a link to a brief overview

After visiting the plantation, we went to the Sandollar Restaurant for a drink and snack before taking the St. John’s River Ferry over the river.

A fun and educational day.

Paducah, Kentucky

April 22, 2022 / / 1 Comment

Pam and I are staying the night at Fern Lake Campground and RV Park in Paducah, Kentucky. Nice site on the bank of a lake. We are camped under a huge oak tree.

We went to the old downtown where they have an impressive series of murals on the flood wall along the Illinois River. This river town needs more than 1 evening to discover all its riches.
