So excited, finally started on our trip. Weather doesn't really look good getting to CA, but hoping for the best.
So far so good. A little rain, but not much. Went thru the Siskiyous Mountains with no problems. It was going to snow at Weed, CA, our usual stop after the Summit of the Siskiyous, so went on to Redding, CA.
It has been in the news about finding a lady on the side of the road on I-5 that had been kidnapped and beaten from Redding, CA. We were driving on that exact road the day after she was found. WOW! Glad we didn't pass by when police were still there.
We stopped at the Orange Grove RV park at Bakersfield, CA. It is the last park before Tehacaphi Pass. There are 3 orange trees at every spot. When in bloom, they let you pick as many as you want. Never been here this time of year to be able to pick them. I picked a bag full. They were so sweet and juicy, I have never had them this fresh.
It was going to snow the next day, so we decided to stay 2 days at Bakersfield. We saw other RV's pull in earlier than usual because I think they had planned on going over the Siskiyous and saw the forecast of snow.
The next day we went over the Siskiyous, no problem except for fog, visibility only quarter mile. Cajon, our last pass was no problem. Nice to be over all the passes.
