BOILED SHRIMP AND ICE COLD BEER

Slept a little better last night.  No cats in the bedroom so can't blame them.  I think it's because I'm not in my bed at home and it's been 6 months since I slept in the RV.  Tonight I'll do better.

Left Pat's house around 10:30 this morning and went to the supermarket for a few things.  Then I went to the dock and bought 7 pounds of shrimp - some to boil and some to freeze and bring home.

I decided not to camp at Island House RV Park and went on to the State Park.  Was lucky to get my usual spot #29 without having made reservations.  Got set up and noticed that the Peace Rock I left in the palm tree at this site back in April is still in place... even after a hurricane.  I guess I hid it too well.  I'll place the next one in a more visible area. 

Can you see it?

Took Xi Shi for a walk to the pavillion and let her go on the beach for a little while.  She seemed confused as to why we weren't going towards the water but she ran and played aroung the steps and then we returned to camp.

If the NO PETS ON BEACH sign is down does that mean we can go swimming Momi?

The water sure looks pretty today, Momi.

When I started to prepare the shrimp the kitty cats went crazy.  Caiche meows constantly till I give her some. 

That's Caiche trying to steal a shrimp and Bunny is watching her.

They turned out really well and the seasoning was just right.

Went for a swim after lunch and it was lonely without Xi Shi.  She cried when I left her in the RV.  It was like she knew I was going to the beach and wasn't bringing her along.  However, tomorrow I'll take her to the pier and if no one is around we'll go down on the beach for awhile.

I missed my beach buddy.

There aren't but a few campers here and I haven't seen any rangers.  When I checked in I asked if the manager was around and was informed that he was out of town.  The manager, Nick, told me I could carry Xi across the beach onto the city beach but if he isn't here I'm not sure I should chance it.  It will be fun for her if she gets to go to the pier area of the beach and the pier is at the very end of the park so we can see if a ranger is coming way before he can see us.  

The little kitty is starting to get used to the RV and has come out from her hiding place a few times.



Had a great day.  There is a breeze blowing and we sat outside on our chairs till dark.  Looking forward to tomorrow.

    1. The shrimp were delicious. The beach looks great, very clean. The weather is almost perfect... still a little warm for my taste. However, there is a cold front coming this weekend. Can't wait.
