Hilton Head Island
We have always heard about Hilton Head. It could have been that Wally’s parents came here on a golfing holiday. Or maybe it was one of the many hushed televised PGA tournaments that we watched. “Summertime” is on a side-tie at Skull Creek Marina located on the NE corner of Hilton Head Island in the midst of the Hilton Head Plantation...one of many. The nearby community gardens were already lush! From this marina we have been able to bike along the 10-mile meandering Leisure Path that connects neighborhood after neighborhood within the plantations. Yes, we’ve also pedaled past many golf courses, each with its own fancy Club House. The first day we pedaled five miles for ice cream. The second day it was three miles to The Coastal Discovery Museum in the Honey Horn Plantation. Indoor and outdoor venues brought alive the culture, history and environmental aspects of the area. Two rare Marsh Tacky horses, especially bred to be stocky and sure-footed in the marshes, were grazing on the property. Very impressive all around.
