Despite my fears about staying at a camp ground where the population is 721, it really turned out to be a great stop for us. We stayed two nights here and managed to relax before out next big drive. I met Bill, who retired from the Air Force (flew C130's). He is traveling with his wife and two golden retrievers. We met John "Shoeless Joe" Hedges who travels all over the US (see http://www.travelinwithjohn.blogspot.com/).
What was best for me was seeing how our kids immediately made friends with the other kids at the camp. Some of the kids were visiting and some live at the camp site. There were two acres of grass behind the trailers which made for good football. The kids played all the time. I am amazed at how easily kids can befriend one another, yet as adults, it seems we struggle with this - - or maybe it is just me or maybe it is a California thing.
We went swimming at a cool aquatic park and then saw Wall E. Michael fell asleep within 5 minutes. We were invited to a campfire by some families across the path. We enjoyed smores, homemade strawberry cheesecake (yummy), and sparklers.
I am so thankful for the time we spent here.
