Most Recent Travels…are at the Top! The rest is history.
Home in 3 long driving days and a day of “rest” Gail did her share of towing all 3 driving days, including through Portland. Mark did drive us through the Siskiyou Pass and back into Puget Sound Traffic! Our one day of “rest” was at in Albany, OR, not total Read more…
And visits with old friends We have a few “Old RPI Friends” in the Bay Area, so we always have to stop somewhere around here, when in the area. This time we chose Half Moon Bay. It’s over the coastal range from our friends and distincly colder, but it was Read more…
And…a Check Engine Light! Camped just 2 nights in Bakersfield before driving north on 99 to Visalia, where we spent 8 nights. That is 3 more days than originally planned, due to that Check Engine Light on Friday afternoon. At least it didn’t happen on a long drive, or towing, Read more…
MLB Ballparks, Traffic, Mountain Views, more Traffic! We stayed near San Dimas, ~40 miles north of Anaheim, ~30 miles east of Los Angeles. It was an “interesting” stay.

Stunning vistas, multi-colored crystals, an old Trading Post OH! And let’s not forget Route 66 and Dinosaur Fossils! That’s what we experienced here in Holbrook, Arizona.
