2nd Full Day at Camp LeJeune

   We woke up to overcast skies and a balmy 70 degrees.  It was so humid!!  We ate breakfast and then headed to the commissary on base to get our groceries.  It was packed.  We waited in line for about 20 minutes to check out.  But the prices are worth the wait!!  We came back to Harvey to put everything away and then John left to go pick up the items we had in storage...extra out door chairs, ladder golf, the cornhole game we bought in St Simon, the bicycles and bike rack.  My plan was to work on the blog while he was gone, but I wasn't able to get into it.  John will need to help me when he gets back.  So I think you can guess what I did instead.  You're right...I went to the beach to look for sharks teeth.  I went about 2:30 and John came down to check on me about 3:30.  He went back to Harvey to take a nap.  I left the beach at 5:00 and John met me with the Jeep at the bottom of the dunes.  He had woken up and since I wasn't back yet thought something had happened to me.  Nope, just can't seem to quit.  I think I'm addicted.  I'm actually becoming a shark tooth snob...I don't even pick up all the tiny little ones anymore!
Here's my collection today...about 75
of them and some sea glass, too!
 
Aren't these serrated ones neat?!?
  We came back to Harvey, cleaned up and then headed out to the sports bar, Heroz, here on base to watch the semi final NCAA football games with Clemson/Oklahoma and Alabama/Michigan St, but it was closed!  (We can't get the games in the CG)  So we went off base to the Carolina Ale House.  It, too, is a sports bar with a gazillion TV's.  Talked to Heather and Cooper and Bonnie on the way.  We were so glad to hear that some tests Ken had came out all right!!  He's still not feeling the best, though, and either is Bonnie.  Hope they start to feel better before they leave for Florida on Sunday!  We spent the whole evening there.  It was fun!  When we got back about 11:00 John went to bed and I worked on my blog till 1:30.  I totally forgot to watch the New Year celebrations on TV!
