"On the road again"
Well here we are once again at the KOA In Eureka California. Wow they have done alot of work to this park...I hardley recognized it. The Manager remembered Oreo locking herself in the truck with the motor running...... anyway the park looks great.
After we left Ramona Canyon we headed back to the San Bernadino forest to a huge resort called "Mountain Lakes in Lytle Creek California. What a beautiful Resort...3 swimming pools 2 huge lakes and a pond surrounded by beautiful mountains. We were visited by Ralphs cousin Larry and Shirely Zollinger! What a nice couple and they treated us to a delicious lunch at "Chili's". From there we decided to take highway 1 along the coast from Ventura to Monterrey/Santa cruz. Wow... what a long drive. Beautiful country. We stopped somewhere before Big Sur, no more gas until Carmel. $4.50 a gallon....ouch. That was the scariest drive for me . Looking out the window at all the loose mountainous dirt cliffs as high as the eye could see and wondering if it was going to come down on top of us. Very beautiful country and I am glad we could see it however I dont think we will drag our home thru their again. I can't say enough about our Chevy truck. It has performed awesomely. That truck has been a great investment. We arrived safely at the Santa Cruz Koa for 2 nights. We visited the Fisherman Wharf and Cannery Row.
We had dinner at a Mexican resturaunt called "El Torito. I went there before with my daughter Jamie and grandaughter Stacia. The food was delicous.
We drove thru San Francisco after they detoured us off of highway 1. We went over the Golden Gate bridge and continued onward for the night in Cloverdale. Tommorrow we will leave California and head up to the Oregon Dunes back to Lakeside Oregon.
