Last Monday thru Friday we camped at the Cameron Fishing Pier and RV Park in Cameron, Louisiana.
Here is a google map showing where the park is located, right on the corner of the Gulf of Mexico and the Intercoastal Waterway.
On the way there, we saw where the National Guard is putting big wire boxes with cardboard in them and filling with sand, to help block the oil, should it come this way.
Sorry the pics aren't the greatest, I was in a moving vehicle.
I wanted to avoid crossing the ferry with the RV, but Ronnie said it would be okay since lots of 18 wheelers do it.
Here we go...
We brought the boys with us and they've never been on a ferry ride. They weren't real sure about the rocking motion.
Since we had to turn off the truck, it was hot. I kept trying to get a good pic of Remi, but like Mitch, he has trouble keeping his tongue in his mouth.
Weatherby was too busy trying to get the people in the truck next to him to play with him.
So now we made it off the ferry without tipping it over and are arriving at the park.
The next few pics show around the HOT, NO SHADE RV Park.

From the observation deck.
There were tons of pelicans on the beach. And a variety of sized boats and ships that pass through there.
Here's the fishing pier. It was originally built in 1999 and rebuilt after Hurricane Rita and again after Hurricane Ike.
That is also why the park office and restrooms are built up high. The restrooms have a elevator for handicap access.

Our boys in their houses. Funny thing, at home Weatherby's kennel is on the right and Remi's on the left. In the RV it was better, space wise, to put them in reverse. The first night when they were told to "Kennel Up" Remi ran into Weatherby's and just plopped down, unable to go any further, his butt and tail hanging out!
