The Johnsons' Journal

With all of the bad weather, thanks to topical storm Ida, we decided not to head to the outer banks of North Carolina, which was hit pretty hard by the storm.  Instead, we headed to Raleigh to find out our friends, Pam and Aaron also in town.  They invited us to the NC State football game and tailgate with the family.  There was lots of great food, football, and good company.  To bad NC State didn’t win.

Go NC State

Looks Good! Can you believe the size of this grill!

Thanks Pam and Aaron and Family for a Great Day!

Since the sun was finally shining when we left Raleigh, we headed to Carolina Beach to relax and do some camping.  We stayed at Carolina Beach State Park, one of the only places in the world that the Venus Fly Trap lives in its native habitat.

We finally get to use our hammocks
