Kiawah Island, South Carolina

Jan and Curt, VFF, (very favorite family) have become regulars at this beautiful place on the Carolina coast and this year, have invited us to share the experience. (Jan is Paul's sister for the non-relative readers of the blog). Laca (Jan and Curt's daughter) and husband Kevin rounded out the group. And now that the introductions are over, let's begin the tour.

This is a view across the water from the deck. Everytime we open the slider and step outside, along comes Larry, swimming over for a snack. Then he

parks himself beside the deck and waits, and waits, and waits...........fortunately, there are no small children around.....This picture is looking straight down off the deck with the building and clouds reflected back...but Larry is NO reflection. Clicking on the picture will make it bigger and you will see the stick across his nose and his beady eyes. Here is the view to the right with the deck next door which looks just like ours and provides for good Larry and other wildlife viewing.

We went for a walk to the nearby beach.......

The grounds are lovely and have over 30 miles of bike/walking paths and 10 miles of beach front.

The beach is very hard packed and biking is a popular way to see it all.

Love the many birds.

Later, we went to dinner and came out to this beautiful sunset. We look forward to some beach time and some biking and more exploring.
