170 Miles 5 hours later

We left Red Bluff and had 170 miles to go to get to Arcata, CA. We took California route 299. It was thru the mountains, where you climb to 3000 feet three different times. We had to stop for construction 5 or 6 times, down to one lane. It took us 5 hours to get there. 

Going down the hill and trying to slow down for this turn. It's a ton of fun.



We were up above the clouds.

 The before and

the after.

Check out the beautiful flowers along California roads. It's like that for hundreds of miles. 



 We stopped at the Lesson Steakhouse. A pretty cool place. See the ceiling fan. It was really cool, all run by one motor.

 Oh, we had the snail races going on at our site. Then we had them for Escargots later. :)

 Had to do some more maintenance on the RV. They put the cheapest draw slides in them. So I went to Home Depot and got some good ones. It takes a lot of tools to install them.

 And a lot of head scratching. It only took 3 hours.

Now we are in Mad River RV Park. It's not a bad park but a lot of people are living here in older RVs that never will be on the road again. But we have a nice big back-in lot. With lots of room to park all our stuff on it.

Heidi sent me a text asking if we are going to the Kinetic Parade in Arcata. So we looked it up and yes we are going to go on Saturday. Because on Sunday we have too many things to do. We have to watch the Indy 500, then the Coca Cola 600 and it's Peggy's birthday!

 

 

Live Happy and Always Go Big.
