. . . The Dunnams . .: vacation

I know this is really late, but this blog is not just to entertain our friends and family. It's also so our memories can be documented. I just am not that good at keeping a journal or scrapbook.

In May we got to have vacation with my Dad. To try something new, he took us to the a Navy Short Stay in Moncks Corner, SC. We had a lot of fun hanging out and spending time together. We got to stay in some condos (no camping here) that overlooked Lake Moultrie. We shared the area with some geese and ducks though. There was lots of poop! Nora did a good job of only touching it once. =) We went for a long weekend (Wed-Sat) and did a lot of relaxing. There was a fabulous playground that Nora & Millie loved. It was 3 playgrounds plus swings all together and one was geared for smaller kids. Of course, Nora spent a lot of time on the slides. That girl can't resist climbing up and sliding down any slide she sees! On our way into Moncks Corner, we stopped at the store and picked up food and things we needed for the trip. Rest assured we ate well and did not ever stop! Since this place was created for the Military to relax and vacation they made sure there was plenty available to do. There was everything from basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, sailing, pontoon boats, fishing, to a man-made beach on the edge of the lake. We played horseshoes and went to the beach a few times. It was only May and it was very hot! My Dad took the "sailing test" and passed to rent the catamaran, but unfortunately there was NO wind, so we couldn't ever go out. Regardless, we enjoyed our Short Stay-cation!
