Camping at Stanhope Campground

Some wave action Friday
 

On Thursday we moved from P&N's driveway to a site at Stanhope Beach camp. We'll be staying here for several days. 

Our Stanhope site

Thursday was hot and muggy so it was a real relief to get into the cool salt waters at the beach, a 10-minute walk from our site:

Cathie coming out after a dip

Lots of people out today

A White Whale sighting was reported. I didn't see it though. :))

 

Friday the weather turned cool and windy. Still nice, but not beach weather for us, so we headed off on a bike ride around the Stanhope area.

 

Covehead was pretty deserted. The famous Richard's diner wasn't open for the day yet.

Nice summer cottages eh!

Lots of winds come off the open water to the right of the highway here


The beach was not so busy today, with fairly strong winds coming onshore:


Still a few diehards though, more as the day went on
