August 4-7, 2022 - This was overnight trip number
19 and was four days and three nights. The temperatures were really hot during
the day and warm at night and a bit windy during the day but almost no breeze at
night. There was also a bit of moderate rain during the night. This was a very
productive trip. A new route to the bathroom was completed which went through
the point and cut out a couple of minutes walking time. The huge oak tree stump
was removed from the parking area and now there is room to park the truck. The
oak pieces were put in place denoting the location of the campsite and beds. And
the first bed was almost completely filled with soil and close to being ready
for use. The trip included a couple of hours at the beach before returning home.

August 12-14, 2022 - This was overnight trip
number 20 and was for three days and two nights. This trip was supposed to be
about working on the beds for growing cool season stuff but the plans changed
thanks to really hot temperatures. The plan changed to getting rid of the huge
pile of canopy being stored along the slope adjacent to the campsite. Thanks to
excessive rain this year, the leaves and wood turned black and molding and
mostly unusable as firewood. These were burned in the middle of four oak tree
chunks in an effort to remove them. A lot of work was also completed on the
parking area including the removal of a bunch of understory trees. The trip
ended with a trip to the beach which turned out to be very crowded. Because of
this we got COVID and began showing symptoms on 8/16, only two days later.
