Saying good bye to the gulf, for a while

We choose to stay at Pine Lake RV because it was a Passport America park and we could stay cheap and still get to Panama City rather easily. We went to St Andrews SP to spend a little time at the snow white beach and do a little kayaking. I think the sand here is much whiter than Sarasota. "...The soft Panama City Beach sand is actually quartz crystals, which over time has been broken down, bleached, polished and deposited on the shoreline. This natural process has made Panama City Beach home to the "World's Most Beautiful Beaches."  ".

 Where did the quartz come from, would you believe the Appalachian Mountain chain a few thousands of years ago. Check it out.

Well, kayaking, beach time, and late lunch at Margaritaville a fine day all in all.

Pine Lake is kind of in the middle of no where so if you go take your own fun and have enough eats and beverages. The sites are flat and well spaced and the services were good. I don't know if we would stay there more than a couple of days. Perhaps we didn't look hard enough for what is in the surrounding area. There is some river kayaking but the one launch site we went to was a floating dock and the river was very high and flowing quite fast. If there was a down stream pick up it would have been fun.
