Shepard State Park-MS

The Shepard State Park is located between Pascagoula and Biloxi, Mississippi.  With only 28 sites it is small, but quiet, in a heavily wooded area. The first photos were taken from inside of our rig of our view.

There does seem to be a lot of workers who stay here and work in town.  A few rigs come in during the weekend, but there’s a lot of “stayers”. Even the map of the campground offers “monthly rates”.  Most are in RVs of some kind, but across from us is this tent; looks like it has been here a while.

Jim engaged the gentleman in a conversation and found out he is a roofer working in the area.  Jim said it must be hard staying in a tent with the low temperatures we have been experiencing (it’s been in the high 20s, low 30s all week at night).  The guy said, “No, I’m pretty comfortable.  I have a good heater, a microwave, stereo and satellite TV.  All the comforts of home.”

We’re enjoying our stay here even though the three couples are scattered throughout the campground.  We rotate every night having happy hour together and sometime dinner.  It is great to travel with good friends who all get along together!!!

Remember, you are loved.
