St Joe Bay

 

June 18 thru 22, 2008

We are camping at Presnell's Fish Camp, Marina & Campground on beautiful St. Joe Bay near the Florida Panhandle town of Port St. Joe. Water & 30-amps on beautiful St. Joseph's Bay $30 for 30-amps & water. 850 229 2710. Keep in mind this is a fish camp not an RV Resort. If you have to have 50-amps and a sewer connection you need to keep on motoring to one of those RV Resorts.

If you can not find one of these "once-in-a-lifetime" campgrounds like Presnell's you need to be looking for a 1/2 price PPA Campground.

This is our motorhome facing St. Joe Bay. Presnell's Fish Camp is one of those magical places.

 

We are spending the next few days with our son and grandsons. It is one of those special trips that people only dream about.

 

As you can see from this picture we are in a virtual water playground. Jeff trailered a boat from Pensacola, for us to use.

Live sand dollars like this one are brown. The dead ones most people find on the beach are bleached white. You can see small hairs along the edge of this live sand dollar.

This is a small tulip shell and an even smaller sea horse. This sea horse would fit on a quarter. It was so small that it was hard to see.
