Next went to Murrells Inlet SC- terrific little beach town halfway from Savannah to Myrtle Beach area. Stayed at Huntington Beach State Park right on the ocean. Across the street was an incredible Sculpture Garden- GREENBROOK. Wow and WOW again. Been to a number of these sort of places, but this one appears to be one of THE best. Last pic is one of fellow sculpting- HIMSELF!
Next northerly niche of our journey- WILMINGTON NC. Their downtown was nice with a visit to the impressive BATTLESHIP NORTH CAROLINA which had THE MOST passionate, enthusiastic dedicated volunteers we had ever met. Lots of Scuttlebutting....
Also in Wilmington area- A hot bed of Civil War history, the Fisher Fort (A Confederate post) was on our list of places to visit. Site of a battle that closed off confederate supplies when the Union won- which led to the quick end of civil war shortly thereafter. Oddly, this relatively effective fort's main defense was just composed of mainly MOUNDS OF ARRANGED DIRT!
