OCEAN LAKES

We got to Myrtle Beach on Saturday afternoon and checked in for the week at Ocean Lakes. It is a very large campground with 893 campsites and lots of activities.


We had a site right by the water. This is the view from our RV.




Looking up toward Myrtle Beach.




You can see our RV from the beach.




The weather was warm and sunny. We enjoyed some sun bathing.



We even got in the ocean a few times. The water was in the 70's. The waves were good for floating but not body surfing.




One morning we were up and out to see the sunrise at 7:22.









The South Carolina NCT rally began on Thursday. There is a large activity center where we had a room for all our meals and activities.










We had a pot luck dinner, a pizza dinner and a meal catered by Carrabba's Italian Grill.




The Blue Heron were represented by Jim, Jan, Cliff, Jo,Larry and Dottie.





One evening's entertainment was by the Low Country Barbershop group. They sounded great and Charles Alexander, SC NCT state director was a member.


The other night's entertainment was a talk about hurricanes and how they had changed Myrtle Beach by News 13 weatherman Frank Johnson. It was very interesting and informative.



Larry has now played golf in Myrtle Beach. We went to the driving range here at Tupelo Bay and practiced a couple of times and then he went with the guys during the rally to Heron Point Golf Course. He decided more practice will be needed.




While Larry played golf with the guys I played at Ocean Lakes mini-golf tournament. Good for my putting!



It was a very nice golf course.




We splurged on a night out and went to Carolina Opry.





We saw Good Vibrations, lots of songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's, some dancing and laughter.









All That! from America Got Talent performed.They really have rhythm. It was fun seeing them in person and not just on TV.




Saturday Ocean Lakes had a golf cart show and parade.





Not the usual carts you see on the golf course.














A little Halloween spirit.



On Sunday, after a very nice week and good rally, we moved to Briar Cliffe RV resort in North Myrtle Beach. It is Passport campground so we can stay for half price. We will be here till Friday and then head to Florida.
