With the floor back in the trailer I was itching to go camping.  I didn’t do all that work so that Allie Airstream could just sit in the driveway!

John had a two-day soccer tournament in Neptune, NJ near the shore which is about an hour away from our house.  We decided to take camp at Turkey Swamp Park, which is only about 20 minutes away from the tournament.  Because of the tournament the only time we spent at the campground was sleeping and eating breakfast.  But it was a good trial run.  We learned at least one thing:  Never forget to bring the stabilizing jacks!  Without them, the trailer wobbles around when you move inside.

Turkey Swamp is a nice campground.  All of the sites are pull-through with water and electric.  No sewer unfortunately, but the bathhouse was not far away.

We enjoyed beautiful weather that weekend.  We picked up some clams at Woolley’s Fish Market for the tailgate with the soccer team.  I grilled the clams and lots of hotdogs for the boys.  Both the boys and the parents seemed to enjoy themselves.

Unfortunately, the boys record was 0 wins, 3 losses, and 1 tie in the tournament.  But as they say, every opportunity to play is good practice, no matter whether you when or lose.

Our next trip would be our planned trip to Jersey Shore Haven next weekend.  Stay tuned from another update from the Jersey Shore.
