This mmorning we went down for coffee at 7:30 but Jo is off today and her substitute Kathy didn't have an early breakfast ready. We went back at 8 then packed the room after breakfast and headed out to the conservancy center on our golf Cart. I almost missed a stop sign going down hill with another golf cart going through the intersection. I had to slam on the brakes hard. We paid our $40 at the center and went off in the golf carts with Kendyl and Toby, her intern. Stopped at a large pond looking for a gator, did the marshland trail next. Saw the baby hawks in their nest and also a painted bunting. Kendyl was using an app on her phone to call the bunting. Next stop was down the dirt road on the middle island. We had a great view of a pianted bunting that came close to us. We had to leave the group at 11:10 since the tram was going to pick us up at 11:50. Got back OK, checked out and took the tram without incident. We sat on the lower deck of the ferry. Waves were crashing over the boat and spraying us lightly but we remained. In Southport Libbie got the luggage while I walked to the parking lot to bail out our car. It costed $16 which wasn't too bad. Off season rate is $8 per day. We stopped at a smoke house we passed in Southport. Turned around and went back, it was a delight. It's newly opened, the owner treated us well. We had pulled pork sandwiches with slaw topping and baked beans. We ended up buying a pound to take home. they packed 4 buns in the bag for us which was nice. Got home at 4:00 which wasn't bad considering we left the island on the 12:30 Ferry. Dinner of course was the pulled pork.
