Kathy, I just thought about that. Orton and Poplar Grove Plantations are near Wilmington.
Michael, you are right. Golfing and fishing are available ... not activities I engage in... so I didn't think of those.
Who knows, Wilmington, NC might be the "new find." It will certainly be good for the NC economy. I live two hours away, so will be available for visits and local guided tours!!
