Tuesday: (10/07) We headed North after filling up the gas tanks. We stopped for breakfast in Trinidad at the Trinidad bay Cafe, one of our must stops when we pass. We started breakfast sharing one of their berry cobblers then topped it off with an omlette that lou and i shared and Dawn had oatmeal.
We […]

Saturday: (10/04) We left our campsite at the reststop North of Willits about 0630 before the sunrise but light enough to see the road. It was still raining but almost no traffic. We stopped in Scotia for breakfast at the market.

Then we made our way on up to the Redwood Acres Fairgrounds. There’s only three […]

Friday: (10/03) Final packing and prep for the trip. Lou fixed some delicious biscuits and grave for breakfast. We pulled out at 09:30 heading North on Highway 280 through San Francisco. The morning traffic had died down and we sailed up 19th Avenue. Of course that couldn’t last so we spent the next 30 minutes […]

Monday: (08/25) Another breaking day. I finished breaking out the concrete on the patio for one of the drain pipes about 20 feet long by 8 inches wide. It actually went much more quickly today, I’m not really sure why? I also finished sawing some of the concrete by where the bricks were. I’ll be […]

Saturday: (08/02) Dawn has several garden pots on a fence in the back yard growing herbs and such. She has cages over some of them to keep the squirrels out. This morning, Lou found this bird in one of the cages. It was happy to be released!

Sunday: (08/03) We visited Rancho San Antonio Park. […]

Sunday: (07/27) Rebuilt one of the cabinets in the laundry room to fit the new arrangement. This poor cabinet was reduced by 6 inches in width when installed previously and now lost another 6 inches with the new arrangement. Poor thing. I also installed the sink.
Monday: (07/28) We, mostly, finished moving back into the laundry […]

Thursday: We took highway 166 then up highway 101 to Pismo Beach. It was getting hot in Bakersfield and we were looking forward to the cooler, we hope, beach. We returned to our favorite campground, North Campground of Pismo Beach State Park. All our favorite sites were taken at the campground and it was a […]

Monday: Lou and I took a walk along the Valley View nature Trail then on up to the ridge. Along the ridge of the bluffs there is a trail of sorts but most of the way it’s like walking on a balance beam with an extremely steep drop off on either side of about 100-150 […]

Friday: We moved South to Red Rock Canyon State Park in Ricardo CG. I’m not sure why it’s called “red rock” because all the rocks around us are gray with only slight traces of any red? We’ll be here a couple of days.
As it turns out, they have a nice dump here at the […]

Wednesday: We moved down to a campground a few miles West of Lone Pine, Ca. Tuttle Creek campground is a BLM campground just above the Alabama Hills that are used so often in the movies. The wind is gusting quite a bit now so it’s nice to be setup in camp.
On the way […]
