Sept. 26 - 28 Huntington Beach State Park

Sunday - It rained almost all the way down, but it was dry when we set up camp. Thank you, Lord! Then it rained some more. When it got down to a drizzle, we made a dash to the grocery store and gas station (both at Kroger), we went in dry and got back in the car just as it was beginning to rain again. It POURED while we went back to the camper, and amazingly stopped as we pulled up to the camper.
Monday - We went to Prossers' for lunch. I was disappointed that they did not have shrimp on the buffet, but the fish, bbq, and fried chicken wing was good. LOL! They have shrimp and grouper on Fridays, so we will go back then. Also, Wed. they have crab cakes, a favorite of mine and Phil's. It poured and poured on and off during the day and night.
Tuesday - It is cloudy, but not raining. We are supposed to get a break today. I want to go to the visitors' center and see if the painted buntings are still here. I hope so! Last year we missed them by a few days. I want some photos!!!! We also are at Books A Million to get wifi and download all the e-mail from the past few days. My Droid will get e-mail at the camper and access the internet, but the phone signal is no bars or one bar. We are supposed to get six inches or more of rain from the new tropical storm brewing in the Caribbean. I hope we are on high ground! There is a lot of standing water around the camper this morning. I hope it all gets absorbed before the big rain comes! We probably will just hunker down in the camper until Friday once the rain begins.
