I’ve made my way to Charleston and have found myself of a pretty unpopulated part of Folly Beach in South Carolina’s Low Country. I suppose for locals it’s a little chilly for the beach but I’m enjoying things none the less. As well as chasing the Fall, I’ve probably also been chasing the tourist season, which suits me just fine. Gordy and I just have that much more room to run around. I’ve taken a few extra days off of the road to collect myself and make plans for the next segment of the trip. In less than a month I’ll have been to and nearly returned from Norway already. I guess times keep ticking away no matter where you’re at.
Here’s a little photo update from some of the previous stops.
See you soon!

Plymouth Rock
-
- We had the opportunity to drive through and visit the Pilmoth Plantation.
-
- It sort of remonded me of a “Murphy’s Landing” with Pilgrims and Wampanoag Indians. This Indian was only slightly irritated that he was working and not able to attend the Parade that was being held for the Boston Red Sox. He did a great job and shred some pretty interesting information with those who had questions for him.
-
- Alson with a traditional Wampanoag village they had a creation of the original English settlement.
-
- These ladies were making sausage.
-
- Gordy and the Mayflower II.
-
- Hey! We found the Rock! Although more symbollic than an actual first step onto the continent…. it was fun enough to see.
-
- I’m on a Boat.
-
- Pictures out windows have always sort of fascinated me,
-
- This guy did a great job with a local scout troop.
-
- First Church,

- I also like old graveyards. Especially towards the end of the day.

- “The Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, Massachusetts, was built between 1907 and 1910 to commemorate the first landfall of the Pilgrims in 1620 and the signing in Provincetown Harbor of the Mayflower Compact. This 252-foot-tall (76.8 m) campanile is the tallest all-granite structure in the United States, and is part of the Provincetown Historic District.” Thanks wikipedia.

- The weather wasn’t as great as we would have liked for exploring the Dunes but we’ll go back a little earlier in the year sometime.
-
- Unfortunately the weather had wrecked a boat along the shore. There were quite a few emergency vehicles in the area looking for the ship’s crew.
P-Town
Well…. It turned out there was some sort of festival going on in Provincetown the night I was there. I thought I’d share the experience as best as I could. It actually was a pretty good time and obviously the people seemed to be enjoying themselves.
