The weather is beautiful and our plan is to go visit Angela’s nephew Josh and family today. They live in Temecula wine country which is not to far away about 12 miles. The drive is curvy which suits the Mini Cooper well and we are meeting them at Leoness Cellars a place they have a […]
We are up early so we can get back into the Joshua Tree National Park, we are spending another night here at Joshua Tree Lake RV so we can have the whole day in the park, the Park is straight up the hill from the city of Joshua Tree. The entrance to the park is […]
We depart from Palm Desert this morning headed west on Hwy 10 to the junction of Hwy 62 then on to Joshua Tree National Park. We are traveling this route because Joshua Tree Lake RV is off of Hwy 62. There is a park entrance on the Palm Desert side but we wanted to get […]
The Mini Cooper needs to get washed today, lots of road dirt. Have you ever noticed how your car seems to run better after it gets washed, I probably take the relationship I have with cars too seriously. We have a bike rack on top with our mickey mouse trailer lights attached so I need […]
The weather is warm and inviting, our stay at California RV Resort was pleasant and we would recommend this place. Our journey will be taking us to Palm Desert today with a stop in Beaumont for lunch at Pollo Loco a good, inexpensive place to eat. We’re looking forward to seeing my sister and her […]
We are awaken to the beautiful sound of high performance cars heading into the track. I lose track of time when traveling and did not realize this was Saturday and what happens on Saturdays in many towns and especially Weather Tech Raceway This is no ordinary Cars and Coffee get together, there is probably 400 […]
We wake up to sunny weather and look outside to see where we are, we parked late last night and could not tell. We are on the edge of a commercial area on one side and residential area on the other side. We felt it was a good spot as there were other RV’s close-by, […]
We just hate waking up to a sheriff on a bull horn telling us we have 20 minutes to leave where we have been parked overnight, even though it was not posted “no overnight parking” in effect. We button up quickly at sheriff’s request and head down the road to find a restaurant for some […]
We wake up to a dense fog and the smell of the sea shore. Since our late arrival last night we are a little slow this morning but anxious to see what this park has to offer, we have to check out by noon so down to the water we go. The fog is lifting […]
We are excited to get back on the road and have decided to head south looking for sun, the missing quotient in the Willamette Valley during the winter. Our plan is to head down the Oregon coast and spend our first night in Brookings OR at a state park called Harris Beach. Leaving our home […]
We are excited to get back to the World War 1 Memorial and Museum this morning. The grounds are spectacular with the spire marking and memorializing the lives lost. Inside you are greeted by this giant glass floor with red poppies below, 9 thousand to be exact, one poppy for every thousand deaths, hard to […]
So we are leaving Sacramento today and Nathans & Kristin’s beautiful home but, before we go Nathan is taking me to Coffee & Cars gathering which has turned out to be a Global Phenomenon, it started at Crystal Cove CA in the early 2000 and then turned in to this huge car guy meet and […]
Our Host’s Nathan and Kristin took us to Historic Sacramento and the adjoining Downtown Commons. Our first stop was The Delta King for lunch which was entertaining to be on the Sacramento River as well as good food. The historic downtown was full buildings of years gone by now full of tourist attractions that found […]
