Electric hookup only

We spent the weekend of Father's Day, camping at Southwick with 2 other RVers.  On Father's Day, many of our family members joined us at the beach for a picnic.  We have done this for many years and unfortunately, this year was a bit cold on the beach.

Most notables:
Spending time with family, beach, bike path, red barns on the way to the park.

Clean with hot showers if you get there in the early am. But remember that we visited the park before school was out so it was quite empty.

#redbarns

I have a love for red barns - for no known reason.  I guess it's my intrigue into history that turns my head when I see them. and the older, the better! There are rolling hills of farm land and dozens of red barns on the roads leading to Southwick Beach State Park.

#Campingwithcancer

Just a week ago, I had exchange surgery so I was unable to go bike riding or hiking on this camping trip so my better half went exploring without me. I had no problem just kicking back in my camping chair while she was gone!
