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 […]

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 […]

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 arrived in Abrams Lake RV Park (no website) last night, another home-grown place in the mountains of the Mt Shasta area. We are surrounded by big trees and the quite of the woods. A sadness and excitement race through me seeing the trip come to a close but excited to start the next chapter […]
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.
