Cape Point Campground Hatteras National Seashore NC

Happy Halloween!

I began my day with a walk over the dunes and down to the beach.

We packed up the RV and headed south on Route 12 to Cape Point Campground.  While the Oregon Inlet Campground was almost full last night, this place is fairly deserted.  There are a few Canadian geese and a couple of deer and a couple of other campers but it is very quiet here.   There is a beach access ramp directly off the camping loop.  We took the Jeep for a ride this afternoon. 

When we drove to the actual point, the waves were tumultuous, crashing and splashing as high as 20 feet.  There were lots of fisherman here…not sure if they were catching anything.

We drove around the bend where the wind and water were much calmer.  The sunshine felt wonderful.

This evening, during the golden hour, deer were feeding on grass at sites across the way. 

The sky was lovely at sunset.

Later, we took another ride out to the beach to see the Blue Moon.  I wish I knew how to adjust my camera to get better moon pictures!
