We’ve done a lot of driving around. Like a lot of the other places we drove through, half the places are closed. But, there’s only a little traffic and we have a great campsite.
Today we drove around the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. It’s been a long time since we were there but they’ve closed one of the roads, the nature loop where you could drive all around the various habitats, so the only road is to the lighthouse and then it continues on to the beach. We saw the lighthouse, horses (from a little closer than across the bay), lots of different kinds of birds, two painters (both pretty good), had lunch on the beach (never thought we’d drive Bob’s car on the beach!), and on one of the trails we took saw lots of horsesh**(some old, some fresh)- but no close views of horses.
I think this has been the most peaceful part of the trip. Bob has had time to make some great meals. When we registered here we asked about several things including where to get fresh seafood. They sent us to ‘Ricky’s’ seafood and fresh produce- it looks like a small produce stand but he also had lots of seafood. Bob made crabcakes and fried scallops, and tonight we’re having a seafood soup he just made.
Tomorrow is supposed to be rain so we’re staying here one more day before we head for home.
