Mount Vernon, WA

We had a very short drive  (16 mile) from Larrabee State Park to Mount Vernon RV Park.   They only had one spot available so we took it for the next three nights.   It is a very nice park.

We then head out to Bay View State Park to check out the spot we will move into on Monday.  This park is on the Padilla Bay....but the water level just be really really low since this boat and floating slide are on dirt.   These folks are trying to pull the boat out of there.
