Hanging Out in Hampton

Day #388; Loop Miles to Date = 4,306

Our apologies for not posting for a while...mostly it's simply laziness! We are still in Hampton, VA and will be for another week or so. We're probably behind many of the cruisers who are heading south this time of year, but there are still plenty who will be behind us as well. And while we didn't foresee that we would be spending this much time in Hampton, it has been a nice change of pace to enjoy some cooler weather. For the past year, we have been living in an eternal summer...so fall temps and colors are enjoyable. One challenge is that we do not have an abundance of cold weather clothes with us, so heading south is definitely in the plans soon.

We have thoroughly enjoyed great times here with our friends on Act III and Corkscrew...dinners out, movies, shopping...and certainly lots of laughs. Each weekend, one of us has taken advantage of the Enterprise weekend car rental deal ($9.99 per day) so we have had ample opportunity to drive around and see the area, and as well accomplish any provisioning and shopping that we needed.

Not many exciting photos to share, but last weekend, we and Corkscrew made a trip to Williamsburg to tour around. Our second trip there, but Corkscrew's first. We had a glorious weather day, and the crowds were light - a very enjoyable day trip.






It is mostly still quite green in this area, although some of the maple and oak trees are starting to show a bit of color.
Not much else in the way of news from here. We've been accomplishing a variety of boat projects, and relaxing a whole bunch!

All for now...stay tuned...and Happy Halloween!
