There is something to be said for plug in camping (even on a wet day) at the ocean. Warm in your Westy home listening to the waves and walk on a deserted beach. Rubber boots, rain gear, a jacket, dry clothes, an electric heater, a good book & something great to fix for dinner. For that day it's really not going to get any better.
