Settling in at Camp San Luis Obispo, CA

The drive from Riverside to San Luis Obispo was a mixed bag: the first half from Riverside to Oxnard was stop and go traffic, but after Oxnard the traffic became lighter and we were actually able to drive continuously and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the coast. Next time, if there is a next time, we will take a route that goes much further out and around the LA area.

It was around Oxnard that we first noticed shepherd hooks with bells spaced out along the roadside. Click here to learn the background about these historical markers.

We found Camp Luis Obispo with no difficulty and check-in was a breeze.

The campground is small but the sites have full hook-ups and are spacious. The weather is cooler here than in Riverside: 70sF during the day and 50sF at night.I think we're gonna love it here!

Here are some photos of the base:
