Magnus Goes Beaching, Day 7

Monday, December 9 2024

Forgot to take campsite pictures at Palmetto, so here they are. After we left.

At the dump station


Okay drive to Bluewater RV Resort in Freeport.  It seemed a nice place--big; just across the highway from the ocean, and the highway down here has very little traffic.  I've not yet had to wait for more than one car to cross it.

The best sites on the beachside are back-in, but they're only about 40' long and their web page wouldn't let me book one.  If I'd not said "towing" I could have gotten one and then just parked the car in the plentiful parking spaces by the canal.  But no matter--there's no one between our pull-thru site and the ocean, so if we stand on the picnic table or sit inside the RV with the front window shade open, we have a marvelous ocean view.

 

It was windy and warm when we arrived, so after hooking up we took a nice long walk on the beach. Lovely.  Rough water and too cold for swimming, but just right for walking with a light jacket on.  The sun was in and out of clouds all afternoon, but when I tried to take a sunset walk with Molly, the clouds gathered and the sun disappeared.  Overnight a cold front came in, so when we woke up it was 64 degrees but that was the high for the day.  Still not cold, but that''s getting ahead of myself.



There was a canal behind us, and all along one side are RV sites; next to the sites there's a little driveway and another row of sites beside a wetlands.  Lovely swampy area full of birds.  And mosquitos, of course, but they're not too bad right now.

Not much to report.  We finished watching A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix. Amusing and with a good, sweet/sad ending.

What a life.
