We are back in the saddle again! Paul left Roseville on Thursday and I will catch up with him Friday afternoon in the car; Just like the Full time days we will be heading north, visiting friends, working a little and enjoying the country once again. This trip is our first in our new Jayco Melbourne Prestige.
Finding Paul is like hitting a moving target. I left Roseville about 11 am and met up with him just north of Ukiah along the highway. I missed the exit but the good news is we had great cell service so I took the next exit and he caught up to me. We hitched the car up, had a little lunch and headed north into the redwoods.
About 4 pm we pulled into Richardson Grove and they had a great spot for one night! That’s all we need. The campground was full but by 8 pm all was quiet and I thoroughly enjoyed falling asleep in the dark of the forest.
The RV handled the windy road great and towing the car went smoothly until we stopped for the night in Humbug State Park near where we will spend a week with friends in Port Orford Oregon. We found a site that would work for the one night and got out to unhook the car, dead battery! Hmmm, thought we had gotten that all fixed up, apparently not. So on to plan B. We called our destination in Port Orford to see if we could arrive a day early and then our friends, Ed and Peggy to meet us there and help either push the car or jump the battery.’
Everything went fine, got the car going and we are off to a fabulous week with friends.
