There’s No Place Like Cove
We’ve confirmed that really big cities are not our thing. We’re Tucson and San Diego people, not Phoenix and LA people. Over the weekend we were set up in a perfectly good camp site on a base that also doubled

The fabulous part about Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach is that it is 15 miles from Disneyland, 20 miles from downtown LA and 30 miles from Universal Studios. If you have a car, attractions await. Like the great Dionne Warwick

Sheric’s Guide to Park Picking
