Camping on the Long Beach Pennisula

I am recently returned from a weekend trip to the Long Beach Pennisula. Camping, beach walking, fire building and seafood eating were the primary agenda. In attendance on the trip were: myself and Andrew, Andrew's friends Laura and Issac, Phil (with Abby the dog) and Phil's friend Natasha (with Achilles the dog).

Saturday was a great day for driving on the beach, throwing the football, walking through Long Beach and...of course...paying a visit to Jake the Alligator Man at Marsh's Free Museum. As the only one in our party with an intimate knowledge of the important sites of the greater Long Beach area, I felt compelled to steer my friends towards Jake. A trip to Long Beach is not complete without a stop at Marsh's Free Museum.

Saturday night was our "Meat Fest" ---oysters (raw at first, then cooked once we realized that it is easier to open them when cooked), crab, hamburger, veggie burgers and sausage. Plus veggies. It was a whole lot of food.

Unfortunately, our fun and frivolity did not carry over into Sunday morning due to the torrential rains that plastered our campsite. C'est la vie. Next time: yurts.
