Enjoying the views

   The beach       

San Simeon Beach

Now there's a backyard!

 

It was so cold last night!  We had to raise the bed to find more blankets about 3 am.  Finally this morning I convinced Paul that he was going to have to start the furnace.  Come on, we have to make sure everything works.  It does and within 20 minutes it was toasty warm and coffee was brewing.  The weather here cannot be more beautiful and this campground is one of my favorites; we have been here a couple of times before and each time I have great memories.  After breakfast we took a walk around the campground just to look around and see if we could get some cell service.  We need to let everyone know where we are and confirm the plans for Thanksgiving.  We also need to find another big site for my parents to park when they come.  We need to stop going for walks because we keep finding better spots.  This time we find this amazing site up on the hill with a view of the ocean that you can’t capture in photos.  We even talk of where we could sit and have coffee tomorrow morning.  You guessed it – back to the RV, repack and move up the hill.  This will be my 4th shot at backing the RV. We are getting really good at this backing all 36 feet into a site.  Paul stands behind the rig talking to the camera while waving his arms; Denise slowly follows every direction he gives for fear if she doesn’t she will run into something and ruin the trip!  I am way better at following directions than giving them and being ignored.  Just another lesson in marriage – do it the way it works for you.

So we are parked in this amazing place, atop a hill watching life move along.  Paul is working and I am wondering what am I going to do today and will I find things to keep me entertained when we finally go full time.  Today I went for a really long walk on the beach alone- I mean really alone, for over an hour I did not see another sole.  Who would have thought on a beautiful day in November on a very accessible beach in California I could walk for over a mile on the beach of the Pacific Ocean and no one else is there? Crowded CA? maybe not.
