Folks!
Our Minnesotan vanguard, Garret & Beau, are at San Simeon right now. They have the coveted site 15, in the upper (1-35) loop. That will be our rallying point.
Remember, for those arriving later, there are additional car fees.

It turns out I can't pull Milo early from school, so I'll be leaving at
3:00 from the SF Peninsula, and won't be there until around 7:00.
What are the additional car fees?

Does someone remember/able to look this up?
As far as dinner/games, I estimate dinner will start around 7 or so, and games an hour or so after that. We get a late start on Fridays, since it's arrival day.

I think, if memory serves, car fees after the Ranger goes home, you
can basically just drive in and park anywhere that's legal. Then,
at butt-crack-o-clock, the Ranger wanders the park, looking for
people without the little "You paid!" sticker you tape inside your
window. He notes your license plate numbers and then leaves. He
doesn't disturb you.
Later in the afternoon, though, he'll do another sweep and see if your car (as noted by the license plate he took down prevously) is *still* unpaid. Then, I don't know; you get a stern talking to, I guess. We've never had that problem because we're all responsible citizens who are respectful of our national parks.
Jess seems to remember parking roughly cost $10, but that "the state park system is doing pretty badly, so it might have gone up this year". I poked around the California State Parks: San Simeon website, but couldn't find anything readily enough about cost of parking, only that they had it for both Day Use and Overnight.
Also, they ONLY TAKE CASH. This is OMG IMPORTANT as someone always gets caught out on this fact.
I think that's all I got.

Its one car per site included, $5/per car per night for each car after that, no more than 2 cars parked in each site. Additional cars beyond 2/site must park in overflow parking.
The sb 1st wave will leave between 1 and 2 and should arrive around 4pm or a little before.
Thank you Garret & Beau for grabbing 15. You rock.
