Terrific last day in Wilmington

We had a great ten days in Wilmington, NC visiting with our son and and our friends. The weather wasn’t always great, but we had a few really nice days and the company was always great.

On our last day, we were up early as we had to take the rig over to Mike’s Collision to have a small crack in the front cap repaired. Once the rig was at Mike’s and unhooked we drove over to Salt Works (an old time favorite restaurant of ours) to have breakfast. Nothing like southern biscuits and grits!

After breakfast we decided to walk off some of those biscuit calories by walking around Greenfield Lake. It was a lovely walk and at 5 miles, we walked off plenty of those biscuit calories!

Since we had gotten rid of those extra calories, we felt we deserved a trip to Krispy Kreme Donuts…oh yummm! The hot light wasn’t on, but the donuts were still very fresh and delicious with a big glass of milk. From there it was a quick stop at K-mart and then back to check on the rig. All done and looking mighty fine!

We ended our day having dinner one more time at Genki’s with Scott. The Katsu Curry was terrific and there was enough leftover to make dinner tomorrow night as well. I love leftovers!

Then it was good night and sleep tight…well try to as we were sitting in front of Mike’s and right on the highway. DSCF1366

Sleep was brief and then we were up and on our way to Charleston, SC to be tourists again!

Hope you had a terrific day and happy travels to you!

My hubby loves those grits. That's why he likes Cracker Barrel so much. Travel safe, you guys.

I'm not sure I've ever eaten grits. Guess I'll have to give them a try. :)
