Ho Hum RV Campground

We pulled into this lovely campground that

is () this close to the gulf.

We have a lovely corner spot where we can

see the water.

Next time - hopefully we'll be looking at the gulf

and never have to close our front curtains.

It's a gem and a secret so shhh!!!! 😊

They have a beach and access but not a lot

of space to really 'walk" the beach

but fishing rocks.

There a long dock where one can fish.

Tom did fish and caught a redfish that

he had to toss back.

Too small.

There went dinner.

And the coastline from off the dock.

Sunsets are beautiful there.

I got the moon and bird in the shot, 

Beautiful sunsets here.

 

Around the camp at Long Key

Low tide at Sunset was really pretty.

 And we had the iguana highway.

We had about 5-6 sashay through.

Of course, my camera for the first 5 was in the camper.

Therefore, only a couple ended up on my SD card.

 And a great egret owned the road.

Great to be home again and now to get back on the

scrapbook bandwagon.

It was great to be sort of off the grid.

Read 3-4 books just relaxing.

Cape May Ferry and Inlet at Ocean City

 Always a fun ride.

No driving for Tom and it was a beautiful day.

Stayed out on deck instead of hiding inside.

 It was almost sunset at the inlet and it was

cool watching the boats go in and out.

 Conveniently there's a boardwalk close by.

Another gorgeous sunset as Assateague.

While waiting for dinner

on Marathon Keys fisheries the pelicans

were fishing and just hanging out.

Dinner was absolutely amazing by the way

and so is the weather.

 So while waiting on our dinner I had

a great time amusing myself.

 Got a lucky action shot...

 Okay two action shots.

Well maybe three.........

 A beautiful sunset.

Sunset in the keys......

Vermillion Cliffs-Arizona

US Hwy 89A was a very exciting adventure yesterday.

We were headed down to get to our campground

right across from Monument Valley before dark 

and admired how pretty those red cliffs are.

And then a storm blew in.

And it got darker and of course the rain came.

Well it appears in the valley here with the red

clay - water and/or rain is not its friend.

As we were heading on our merry way - all of a sudden

the cars coming the other way were flashing their

headlights and waving.

We looked around and found nope - no sneaky cops

lurking in the bush waiting to nab you for speeding as

the sheriff already passed us.

Tom checked the lights and yup - they were on.

Well.

It appears that in Arizona - flashing lights means

flashing flooding and not only that

big boulders fell in the middle of the road and

workers are still trying to remove it the next day.

See that big mud pile - couldn't get a photo of the boulders though.

Because we had to return the same way we came

and go 100 miles out of our way to get where we wanted to go.

And in a couple cases we had to plow throw about

an inch of the muddy red clay.

Oh look the storm over the cliffs left.

Rainbow over Lake Palmer.

And if you could see how I got this shot you'd be

impressed. Sortof.

It was a driveby and I had to shoot from the passenger

seat across the driver - and out the driver's window

that has a bit of a concave to it.

Trick shot.

bwahahaha!

We made it to the campground way after dark

but did stop for a beautiful sunset.

Around our camp at Long Key State park

The infamous and most photographed tree on/in the water that we did

not camp by this time.

 Some sponge that was washed up on shore.

 Some friends dropped in and hung around.

 These friends liked the water better.

 They grow wild everywhere.

 Sunset.

We had a lovely time.

Did some bike riding and relaxing.

Fresh fish and shrimp on the barbee.

It was a bit nippy at night - which meant we could keep 

the windows open and lovely sunny days with a cool breeze.

And as mentioned before - unplugged.

All photos taken from the lounge chair in camp.

Doesn't get any better than that.
