Ugh, a big dry spell of non-posting. I went through and finally renamed the photos I want to save and post and realized just how far behind I was. So, we’ll start here, a few posts about our trip to Hilton Head after Christmas.
The first sunset of the trip….drove all day from Niceville and arrived here just as the sun was setting. Walk a minute on a wooden boardwalk and you are at the beach. Not the sandy, soft beach we’re used to in the Panhandle either, this beach is rock hard and very wide….this is low tide.
I didn’t take many pictures of the interior of the island, mainly because I was driving as we went through most of the time. Very taken by surprise by the controlled nature of the development…..this picture is taken from the top of….
the lighthouse…..we all climbed to the top. We booked our deeply discounted hotel knowing full well that the weather could be completely horrible, but, it was as good as we could have hoped, highs in the mid 60’s and low’s in the 40’s, bright sunshine every day. The pool at the hotel must have been 88 degrees, just crazy warm.

Sunset on the next to last day of the trip
We rented bikes one morning from the hotel and headed north along the beach…..I’m pretty happy with these pictures; I took them while I (and they) were moving! Went about 2 miles up the beach and then headed back (against the wind…not fun). Had a good time.
