Trip 3: Spring 2024 – Hilton Head and The Outer Banks

Great start to summer 2024…

Our last stop on this trip was Cape Hatteras off the North Carolina shore. We stayed at the State park on a site with no hook ups so we were off grid relying on solar for electric needs and had stopped to fill the fresh water tank on the way in. It is a great…

Di: From Cape Hatteras to Home

So, we haven’t yet visited an area referred to as a “National Seashore” and been disappointed. Cape Hatteras is a 70-mile peninsula where we spent a few days in Frisco State Park, and enjoyed the area’s beach, biking, seafood and fishing villages.

Di: Back at the Ritz, RV Style

So, after much enjoying our few days in Hilton Head last year, we decided to make it our primary destination for this year’s trip. I refer to our location as the Ritz because it really is a resort-style location, complete with pool, tikki bar, and restaurants. We’re pretty comfortable for our 3-week stay. There’s not…
