Carolina’s Notes
I got up desperately needing a shower. I cleaned up while Tony packed up and hooked up in the rain. It is raining steady and at times very hard. It won’t be nice and easy heading out into these conditions. I’m grateful that I didn’t wake up to a blizzard.
This trip was hard to get through because the weather was rainy and cold and the truck drivers were flying by us and the mountain terrain was pretty intense. In spite of it all, I didn’t have a panic attack. I also flew solo today without any crutches. Tony did another excellent job of driving! I don’t think I could fair as well. We wound up hooking up at Heritage RV Park in Corning, CA (a little over 100 miles from Sacramento). This RV Park is part of the Passport America Discount RV Parks but because they were having a group stay with them we were unable to get the fifty percent discount. We didn’t want to drive any more today so Tony took the site. The sun came out and was still shinning so we decided to go for a bike ride. We traveled down the residential streets and on the way back to home base, found an olive shop that had tasting. Tony hasn’t done much for himself on this trip so I encouraged him to stop and sample the olives. This shop also sold olive oil. I wanted to buy some oil but Tony wanted to check our grape seed oil inventory in our Watkins stock before purchasing. We came upon a strip mall that had a Mexican Restaurant and Tony wanted some margaritas. I agreed and we enjoyed the evening. We shared a combo burrito plate. We had ended the event with some deep discussions about issues that wound up making the evening tense but we got back to Harry and tried to calm down. We did some computer work then went to bed. I wish I could learn just to keep some of my thoughts to myself. It wouldn’t spark such drama. I hope tomorrow will go smoother.
Tony’s Notes
It was a very beautiful mountainous drive through the northern part of California on I-5. I was glad to get into the Sacramento Valley and flat ground. Concord, California is the olive capital as far as I could tell. There were olive trees everywhere and I enjoyed tasting olives. I really enjoyed the margaritas, but I was once again disappointed when we started to bicker over nonsense. I definitely enjoyed the bike ride in the Sunshine and surrounded by Palm Trees.
