Taking care of business

Reception on internet and cell service has been off and on. One day we drove over to check out  one of the other campground on Padre Island. Joe took along his computer to see if it would be faster so he could do a little work. Bird Island Basin has camping right on the water.  We still like where we are staying a little better as it is prettier with the dunes and flowers. Joe spend some time working while I still some reading and watched some of the wind surfers do their thing.

You can also camp right on the beach. Just down a ways from where we are staying is a part of the beach where you can drive your car right on the beach. Part of it , anyone can drive on and then you come to a section that is 4 wheel drive only. We, of course, had to try it out. We saw  tent trailer, a small airstream trailer and a fairly large 5th wheel camped out on the beach.  Also a number of people fishing. One of these days we have to get some fishing gear and try it out.
