Beach Time

Here is a short post from our first 2 days on Kiawah Island.  It

is a beautiful place, very different from the Outer Banks.  It is

very tropical looking and the beautiful beach is also different.

The Kiawah River flows into the Atlantic about 3 miles from

our condo.  We walked the beach this afternoon.  It was

brisk, but bright and very beautiful. 

 

 

 

This pic is from our first walk upon arriving

Sunday afternoon.  We drove all way in the sunshine

and it was lovely and in the 60s for our walk.

The rain caught up Sunday night and we lost

about 20 degrees, but the sun...

 

shone beautifully for our day in Charleston.  We started

with a bus tour of the historic city and we walked and

then we did a drive through when we headed

out of town.

 

One of the things that Charleston is known for is its

stunning iron work. 

 

I entertained myself on today's walk by taking pictures mostly

of the beautiful patterns and arrangements in the sand.

This is one of my favorites.

 

Look at the size of this Horseshoe Crab !!

 

It was apparently not a good night for the crabs. 

There were many exoskeletons on the beach.

 

 

At the river's edge.

 

 

Do you recognize this guy?

 

 

I took lots of pics othese arrangements provided by

Mom Nature.  I hope some of them

are good enough to frame.

 

Tomorrow Savannah.

 

Love you all, Mom
