Pismo Beach, Ca

Pismo SB Pismo SB
We moved to Pismo Beach State Park, North Beach Campground this morning. Our campsite has some nice green grass for Mr Milo, some afternoon shade for us, is fairly well isolated from other camps and has a nice open sky for the Motosat. We walked downtown for a late lunch of fish and chips at Pismo Fish and Chips restaurant (505 Cypress Street). They have the best fish and chips we've found anywhere south of Crescent City. We looked around the shops downtown. Pismo Bobs Hardware and Nursery is extremely interesting. For a small hardware store, they are far better stocked than most others, especially the "big box' type. Their nursery has some very interesting items. We also stopped at another nursery/kayak shop down the road. Plumeria's Garden and Gifts (470 Price Street) has an even more interesting collection of nursery items including 15 foot tall dinosaurs and a cute shop cat. We took an evening stroll down the beach to Oceana Beach and then back up the Pacific Coast Highway to our camp.

  1. [...] Don caught up on blog posting. We didn’t have internet in Del Norte Redwoods due to trees everywhere. There may be only one campsite where the satellite could possibly bee seen. We weren’t in it. Lunch at the Chart Room overlooking the Crescent City beach and marina. This is the second best place in California to get Fish and Chips. (Pismo Fish and Chips Restaurant, Pismo Beach, Ca). They also do excellent coleslaw. Lou and I had the Fish and chips, Dawn had a fish stew. They’re getting ready for the fair here August 3rd so everything is being spruced up. There were horse corps, precision riding groups practicing in the rodeo ground yesterday evening. « Crescent City, California   [...]
