I could’ve fallen asleep at our quiet little spot along the lagoon
Yes, another outing for Faye and her little bears. This time, we went to Hunting Island, SC. My plan was just to go to Pinckney Island, but I missed the exit for Hilton Head, and so I just decided to go on to Beaufort and do Hunting Island. Ahhh, every time I drive through Beaufort remember again just how lovely it is. There an undisturbed quaintness about Beaufort that has gotten lost, I think, in Charleston and Savannah. I suppose it is simply that Beaufort is smaller, set further away from main traffic and thoroughfare, and thus it’s quiet low-country character has remained.
Jackson was excited about the lighthouse, but our shortest of shorties didn’t meet the height requirement for going in and climbing up so we had to settle for walking around the outside of the lighthouse. I told him that someday while Josephine is at school, I’ll take him to the Tybee Lighthouse and we can climb its stairs.
I have posted a massive number of photos. aye. I have finally placed a darned uv filter on my camera and have also been shooting in full manual mode, (which is a good and bad thing).
Have a happy Monday!

It looks like a wonderful place to visit. You get the best pictures while still keeping all the little ones together–impressive. I have not figured out the camera thing considering I need my hands for a cattle prod, stun gun, and lasso to keep everyone under control.
Good stuff.
That’s not Hansel and Gretel.
That’s Bonnie and Clyde!!
You take some really nice photo’s!
