Fort Flagler – Friday May 2, 2014

Back to Flagler for the weekend I left work at 11:15 and we got here at 3:00.  We’re in site 89 again,
Even with the early arrival most of the sites were taken.  The state has been working hard at coming up with more ways of getting money out of us.  When we were here on March 30th there was a sign saying that camping rates were going up on April 1st however the new rates would NOT be posted until April 1. Here is the new camping pricing matrix;

Each site is identified with letters to tell you how much the site will cost. There are weekday rates and weekend rates, along with three seasonal rates: winter – shoulder – summer. Also each park has a different definition for the three seasons.  Thanks Jay.

The park has added a chart showing how much each site will cost

Remember this is only for the Shoulder season.  I think the rates go up $2.00 for summer.

I’m writing this on my phone and I think my first two pictures have disappeared.

Edit: looks like I can post one picture at a time.

Palmer – Kanasket State Park – Sunday March 16, 2014

We went out to Palmer-Kanasket this weekend to enjoy the rain.

40 years ago today Jean and I got married.

Here’s our site number 35, last one with electricity at 6:00 p.m. Friday evening.

Hank and I took a couple of walks on Saturday.  It was kind of a nice day.  The rain started at 7:00 p.m. and is still raining.  The above ground fire pit had 1.5 to 2.0 inches of rain in it this morning.

Millersylvania State Park – Saturday March 1, 2014

I had to post this as draft the first time.  I got a wordpress update on my phone and I could only get it to post one picture.  Now I’m struggling to get the walk around picture to come over, Oh well.

It is Sunday morning and it’s raining. One of those Washington it’s going rain all day rains. Hank and I got out for a while on Saturday

This is your general wander around walk.

Cannot get the phone print screen to come across, fourth time was the charm.

Campsite pic, we are in 233.

 

Penrose State Park – Sunday February 16, 2014

This is a late post however the weather at Penrose was nasty all weekend.  It RAINed all day on Saturday with wind and heavy rain Saturday night.  Hank and I did not get out at all on Saturday.  We left at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, I wanted to get across the Narrow’s bridge before the wind got to bad.

I took this campsite picture as we were leaving Sunday morning.
On Saturday Hank has been with us for six years and I think we’ve turned him into a dog.
Not a very good picture however he’s a happy dog.  We’re glad he’s part of our family.
