Saturday: Givhans Ferry State Park

After the full day we had yesterday touring Charlestown it was nice to just veg out.  I did spend some time researching some places to stay between our present location and our winter destination.  We have committed to working at Little Manatee River State Park in Florida for the winter but are not scheduled to begin until December.

It was a little frustrating tying to look up sites on the internet because we have a very spotty connection.   Having good reliable wifi is one of those things we tend to take for granted until we don’t have it anymore.

Sunday: Givhans Ferry State Park

We spent another very lazy day.  I sat outside for a little while until the smoldering smoke from our neighbor’s campfire and the mosquitoes had me fleeing back inside. 

I had chosen this particular park due to its close proximity to Charleston---Normally we pay for one or two nights and if we like the park extend for additional days.  BUT this time we made the mistake of paying for a week when we registered-big mistake because of the very spotty wifi and cell phone connection. 

Monday: Givhans Ferry State Park

We spent yet another lazy day-almost a repeat of yesterday.  I did feel like I accomplished something because I did some long overdue scanning of receipts with our Neat scanner and I also cleaned out a cabinet that had an accumulation of brochures and maps from places we had visited.

Tuesday: Givhans Ferry State Park

In the late afternoon we took a walk with our garbage to the recycling center. 

 

 

 

 Along the way we encountered this little guy. 

 

 

We planned on going for a long walk but the mosquitoes were relentless so we rushed back home, almost running at times.
