$64.66 (2 nights: $24 x 2 + tax + concession fee) Barview Jetty County Campground
Barview Jetty Campground is a huge campground, but at the “jetty day use” end, there are 11 “dry” sites (no elec/water/sewer). Directly overlooking the inlet. Last night, I was the only camper on the jetty (the blue dot).
At dusk, the day-use folks left, and I was alone. Alone to hear the surf, fog horn, buoy bells (?), and gulls. Looking out, I could see the red and green channel markers blink, and the light at the end of the jetty.
I had intended to just use this as a launching point to get closer to the mid-coast, but I ended up staying two days. It cleared up. And I took out my drone.
Maybe I’ll have another sunrise like this tomorrow.
On the road again… and the blog too! Heading my way! 🙂 Yippee! Safe travels. See you soon!
There your are! I was starting to worry that something went wrong. Trek on!
Heading to the fave campground on the central coast? New electric and water hookups this year. Enjoy!
Yes. In fact, I’m now at that top-secret favorite mid-coast campground. Walked into site 25 – Oceanside, with a view. I’m very lucky. I’m glad they still have non-reservable sites.
What’s your evening power source at a utility-free site? Trying to picture what kind of glow Apollo 23 has off-grid after sunset.
Solar charging batteries keep me lit at night. LED lights inside.
