We arrived at Saint Joseph Peninsula State Park at 5PM yesterday and after some effort managed to get ourselves backed in to the site we were assigned. It is a great park and our site faces the sunset and the beach with only two rows of sand dunes between the beach and us. It would have been nice to have a little wider space as you can see in the photo, be we are quite happy. The temperature just right at around eighty and there is very little humidity. Not a cloud in the sky, either!
We have Curt and Elly Anderson with us from Orlando. Curt went to school at FSU and spent a lot of time here during his college days. He is having a great time revisiting his old haunts, fishing and swimming. Elly, as the only working stiff in the bunch, is enjoying the chance to chill and read while we retirees amuse ourselves at the beach.
Speaking of the beach, it is magnificent! There are miles of white sand, and very few people. There is about nine miles of beach in the park and it is far enough from the closest homes that there are very few people.
There has been a bit of an off shore breeze that has the bay side kicked up a bit so we have not had the kayaks out yet. The wind seems to be abating some, maybe tomorrow. Meanwhile, Barbara is hunting shells.
