Padre Island national seashore is located far away from South Padre with it′s beaches and hoards of vacationing college students know for beer guzzling, restaurant food eating, late night partying, loud noise making, trash littering, weekend warriors who arrive to fulfill their long list of wants that usually results in untold damage done and garbage left behind from their onslaught. Yes, the national seashore consists of a long beach on North Padre Island where nature is preserved.

Much of the park is primitive with nearly 70 miles of undeveloped beach camping.

Awake, step outside to walk across the street to the restroom, then back to the jammer and because of the strong wind preventing me from boiling water, I choose to begin packing out. First, I put the solar panels in their place, next, I rearrange the inside and when all is positioned, I climb into the drivers seat, start the jammer, pull forward twenty feet and then step out to police the area.

Methinks, policing the area is something that I have done ever since 1970 when I was in boot camp. I get back into the jammer and drive out of the park and into the carnival area where I stop at the cafe for some coffee and WiFi, and methinks, it is nice to have a connection again as there was no phone signal in the national seashore. I connect to the internet and begin uploading my files.
