The title is "Leaving Ocean Isle Beach" but it was not as simple as anticipated. As we tried to back out of our site at the Waterway Campground the front wheels of the coach started to dig into the sand and when they started to go down, the rear wheels started spinning, effectively burying the coach to the axles! After more than two hours of using the jacks to lift us out and then digging under the tires and placing boards for then to ride on, the 5 member "crew" (our neighbors) at the campground finally got us out. No damage except for the front hydraulic jack pad. It was bend up on two sides from the weight of the coach when a board placed under it broke!
So...The picture you see is after we got out and on the solid road. A memorable experience we are not wanting to repeat! I guess Mother Earth did not want us to go. The odd thing is that a couple of days before, I had to take the coach to the DMV for my Class B drivers road test (which I passed) and made it out and back in to the site with no problems....Go figure. Finally left the campground around 2pm in the afternoon, westward bound.
