Our campsite is one of many but nice. It is a corner site and if it were full, we would have close neighbors behind us and on one side, but it's not full so we don't! We really wanted to spend our anniversary here, but, alas, it falls over Memorial Day weekend and they were packed out. Actually, this week turned out to be not crowded and very quiet and pleasant.
Our camper is called a truck slide in camper. The side of our camper has what is called a 'slide' and it is in when traveling or stored but out to camp. It allows for double the space in the kitchen area which is vital for such a small space! And yes, this unit fits on the back of our truck.
First day we arrived and unloaded the camper and went for a bike ride. If anyone had seen us unloading they would think we were a clown circus act. I had 2 sets of golf clubs in our tiny bathroom, a blown up pool float on the bed and 2 bikes along the walkway with the 'slide-in' jammed up keeping them in place while driving.
With the set up complete we decided to take a nice bike ride out to the beach. This ride wound up to be about 6 miles long (yes we took one really long wrong turn) but was still fun and we saw a part of the island we haven't seen before. This beach is called driftwood beach. The ocean is encroaching on the beach area and has killed several huge trees along this stretch. They are all quite beautiful and photogenic.
This pier and several beach shots were taken with the sun setting slowly in the background. We actually rode down the bike path along the road from the camp ground and road back all the way up the beach to the end. 
We got back to the camp site and I fixed tacos for dinner while Bob started a fire in the fire pit.
Roasting marshmallows rounded out the evening and in order to discourage the mosquitoes that braved our smokey fire, we retreated inside to relax and go to bed.
