When we left Myrtle Beach, we fully intended to get to Savannah, GA. But just before we left, we got our mail. In our Escapees magazine, I read an article on the Holiday Festival of Lights at James Island County Park in Charleston. I started telling Cory about it as we were pulling out, and before we reached Georgetown, we decided, "Why not?" So we stopped in Charleston!
We had to drycamp the first night in the overflow area of the county park. The HFOL is a big deal and the campground fills up every weekend through the holiday season. But we were able to get into a full hookup site the next day, and we planned to stay here through Thanksgiving. As it turns out, we've both been sick all week--caught a nasty bronchitis--so we extended our stay another couple of nights. We managed a nice Thanksgiving Day dinner, turkey and all the trimmings, here at home, and got out to see the big sand sculpture across the way at the Winter Wonderland.
