Camping Under The Blood Moon

[hellsbay]

I just spent a couple of days in St. Augustine Beach at Anastasia State Park. It's right on the beach near the inlet. Old St. Augustine is minutes away and good restaurants are near by. The cost, for seniors is $15 a day. The campsites are located in a coastal oak scrub setting and very well set up. It's a great place to bring a kayak or paddle board. I was fortunate enough to have clear skies and observed a rare blood moon on my first night. Just south and down the road a few miles is an outstanding restaurant, Saltwater Cowboys. It's in a residential neighborhood at the end of the street, and right on the spartina flats of the river for great sunsets. The food is outstanding and reasonably priced. It's dining 'Cracker Style'. If you go, it will become one of your new favorite restaurants.

 

This is Saltwater Cowboys Restaurant

The fishing can be outstanding here. This is one of the redfish I caught on a fly rod during my short stay.
