Huntington Island State Park, SC

Hunting Island State Park is one of the most popular state parks and beach areas in South Carolina. The Hunting Island beach attracts over a million visitors a year.

The pristine sandy beach, natural setting and warm Atlantic Ocean make a perfect getaway. Hunting Island features a campground, which has spaces for RV's and tent campers, as well as a primitive camp site for established groups. The camping area has very easy access to the beach.

The Hunting Island historic lighthouse is the only lighthouse open to the public to climb in the state. From the top platform, one can get a breathtaking view of the ocean, beach and the marshland.

Review: Common Ground

If you are visiting downtown Beaufort, SC and want a cup of coffee, Common Ground Coffeehouse is a nice choice. It is down an alley towards the waterfront.

It is small with a couple of comfortable chairs and a few tables. And of course, it has a small porch with some tables overlooking the waterfront.

On this chilling winter afternoon, we had their hot chocolate which was good. I liked the fact that the whipped cream was put on using a baker’s icing bag not a can of so-called whipped cream.

Review: Hilton Head BN Cafe

Arrived in Savannah from Chicago. We stopped at the Hilton Head Barnes and Noble. I was hungry so I got a piece of original cheesecake and a “tall” hot chocolate. The cheesecake had a nice flavor but was like eating a piece of rubber. And I prefer 7-11 hot chocolate to Starbucks expensive so called hot chocolate. And it only cost $7.45
