Paradise? The majority of camp hosts say "YES"...

 There are 3 camping areas.  We've only been trained in this section so far (with the RVs in Buttonwood Campground)... as of Oct 8, 2011.   In the very center of this picture is the camper marina where Bob has been doing his fishing.  It's wildly alive with fish.  Don't try to count them.  Hundreds of hosts apply for Bahia Honda SP...and keep trying for years.  You are supposed to have a minimum of 500 volunteer hours to even apply.  We came with zero.  We just happened to submit an online application at the exact time another set of hosts had to decline their "place in the sun".  We work 3 days on and 4 days off.  We've explored the other keys this week and are well satisfied we landed in the best one!

Take your shoes off and relax a while....

Our Old RV turned into a Hippie Wagon

We found our much-loved Winnebago at Carpinteria State Park. It was parked right on the beach with a bold sign in its window pointing out the entrance all hippies were to use. We found it locked, but later found the owner and her boy friend and their two dogs. We got to tell them how we loved the changes...especially the purple velvet curtains and the comfy couch where the dinette had been. Bob was joyful over the discovery (see photo closeup). I was nostalgic and thinking of our many adventures with the gas-guzzling beast. Here's some photos from the Winnie's album.
