I&#8217;m usually not the biggest fan of State Parks, but will make an exception for Patrick&#8217;s Point. It is a beautiful park, filled with redwoods, ferns, and wild flowers, set on a little triangle of land jutting out into the ocean.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3795.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13090 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3795-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3795-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3795-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3795.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even though the place was booked solid, it didn&#8217;t feel all that busy I must say. The camp sites were spaced enough as well and a wall of foliage separating each. Our spot was not huge, but then we are only in a van. Surrounded by trees and bushes of all sorts, we settled in for a relaxing afternoon of hiking the trails down to the beach, a visit of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitredwoods.com\/listing\/sumeg-village\/473\/\">Sum\u00eag Village<\/a>, and finally a hike out to the rocky coastline to listen to the sea-lions and enjoy the never ending view to the West. For the first time in a while, we discussed\u00a0 our future plans of sailing too. No rush though, we are really enjoying ourselves in Big Blue.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3802.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13093\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3802-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3802-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3802-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3802.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3798.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13091\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3798-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3798-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3798-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3798.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3805.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13094\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3805-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3805-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3805-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3805.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-17-5-13-37-PM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13097\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-17-5-13-37-PM-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-17-5-13-37-PM-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-17-5-13-37-PM-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Photo-Jun-17-5-13-37-PM.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3806.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-13095\" src=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3806-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3806-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3806-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.van-tramp.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_3806.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowing we would be in the area a day earlier than our scheduled arrival at Kerri&#8217;s Aunt&#8217;s place, Kerri reserved a spot at her childhood favorite place to camp in California; Patrick&#8217;s Point State Park.
