Wednesday, June 11, 2008-Frisco Campground, NC
Today we arrived at Frisco Campground on
Hatteras Island. There is a high bluff over looking the campground
with the ocean beyond. We were not able to find a site high on the
bluff, but we did locate one near the ridge. The view is not as open
as the other sites, but the breeze is comfortable. After we set up,
we relaxed and Sue took two naps and caught up on her sleep. We had
steaks on the grill with corn on the cob and tomatoes. We were able
to get a cell connectionf rom our site, perhaps because we are up
high and near the signal from the local town. There are no cell
towers in national parks or wild life refuges.
Tomorrow we will take some walks, enjoy
the beach and relax. The generator seems to work well and provides
an adequate electrical supply. There is not enough power for air
conditioning, but everything else seems to work. It has a one gallon
capacity and we will see if it makes it through the night. We have
ceiling exhause fans to cool the camper and they run on battery
power. The generator charges the battery and operates small
electrical appliances. We don't need much, but the exhaust fans make
a big difference. The temps are getting cooler, but the humidity
near the ocean is high.
