Hunting Island State Park
Scott, Ruby, and I traveled to Hunting Island with Scott’s brother, Kevin. For a pregnant (and nauseous) lady, I had a pretty good time. Many of these shots (the better ones) were taken by Kevin. It’s great to have a brother-in-law that’s so good with a camera
This is what we love most about Hunting Island: empty beaches and zero development. If you live close by and haven’t been, it’s a great beach spot. It is a campground without any restaurants or high rise condos on the beach. Just you, your tent, and a lot of open sand. (Hopefully the sand stays out of the tent, but not likely.)
The campsites themselves (well, most of them) are in the forest by the beach. The evergreen trees are tall and beautiful. I loved to wake up and see this out the roof of my tent.
The deers were not afraid of people, to say the least. Ruby managed to get a kiss from several deer. We caught this moment on camera.


Oh yeah, camping and beaching it at 8 months pregnant.


Ruby thought the tidal pools were the best part of the beach. She spent hours swimming in and running through these pools. Here she is with Kevin, lounging in the pool.
That looks awesome! How far from Asheville?
