Winter Wonderland

Sunday’s drive south to Seven Feathers was an easy drive.  There were showers off and on but nothing too bad.

Debbie and Jerry drove down in their Beamer to have dinner with us and see us off, thank you very much that was nice. They stayed in the hotel because their motorhome is being repaired.

The drive from Canyonville to Redding was another story all together.  Luckily the road was mostly free of snow but there were a few patches of frost and ice here and there.  That section of I-5 is difficult enough with it’s twists, turns, climbs, and downgrades with perfect conditions let alone snow and ice.  We have seen a small amount of snow on the side of the road before, but this time it was a lot. The roadside snow lasted almost all the way to Redding.

Excuse the dirty windshield, we got sprayed pretty good by passing vehicles.

We spent the night in Redding at the Redding RV Park,  a nice enough place for one night.  I bought a Passport America membership and staying here only cost $15.40.

Today we continue south to Patterson, CA for one night then on to Bakersfield for maybe two nights, (Gorgie wants to do some laundry).  When we get to the Palm Springs area the Indio Tamale Festival is going on and we are looking forward to the strawberry tamales.

More Later,

Rich
