Half Moon Bay SB
Reservations work filled our morning, but we were successful in getting accommodations into the new year except two nights this week when we will be passing Big Sur and some national campgrounds that are first come, first serve. We are trusting in providence that those will work out. There are nice retail camps available as Plan B, but we need to slow down the amount of money going to camp sites. State parks are averaging $50/night; a primitive national will probably be $11/night. Two nights saves $78! California is expensive; even the county parks are about the same as the state. We hope to find ACE parks in Arizona because of all the dams. They are usually outstanding, notwithstanding the last one in which we stayed. The previous Army Corps camps had flat concrete slabs with water and electric at the sites for $11 for seniors. That’s how we saved money last year.
Needing to break the tension of reservation work, we walked the beach, which seemed to relieve Penny. But I needed more; I jumped on my bike for a 9 mile ride. That did the trick!
Penny was sketching when I arrived; I warmed leftover spaghetti for a late lunch. Penny continued her work; I posted FB pictures of the bridge. Then I pan fried the snapper and Penny made beets with the greens. What an awesome meal! We even had Haagen Dazs ice cream bars for dessert.
