On the road again

Just like that ole Willie Nelson song, we are" on the road again!" After filling in for the assist. managers of the park this weekend,we put the golf cart in the storage shed(yes it does fit in there!) said goodbye to our friends,and we hit the road.

Our destination was Redding Ca. We had to make a pit stop in Sacramento for Jeni's eye exam,so I pulled the rig into the Mervyns parking lot across from the Dr's office,sent Jeni to her exam and I took a siesta.

We headed out again,this time with Jeni at the wheel and arrived at Sacramento River RV Resort in Redding at 6pm. We went to dinner at a greasy spoon nearby and took a nice walk along the river before turning in for the night.

Tomorrow we are going to explore Lassen National Park and the surrounding area. Hopefully we can find a better place for dinner.

My daughter Jackie and DJ visited us at the park last Saturday before we headed out. It was great to see them and we will miss them and all our family while we are in Oregon this summer.

We will be here a couple of days then we will head on up to Oregon. We heard great things about Sac.River Resort and when Jeni used to work in Redding,she would pass by the resort and dream of one day staying here. Well we are here now and you know how sometimes places aren't always what they seem.There's a big noisy saw mill right across the river! Oh ya, the mill is operational 24/7.....Its going to be a sleepless night!
