On June 24, 2021, we arrived at Crater Lake National Park. It was a pleasant drive with some gorgeous scenery. Drove through WEED, CA. I loved driving alongside Upper Klamath Lake. We arrived at Crater Lake National Park. Our plan was to stay at Mazama Village for three nights. This would allow plenty of exploration… Continue reading Crater Lake National Park – Unfiltered

Redding Elks Lodge & RV
Today was a 313-mile drive from Yosemite. More curves and steep grades. Oh boy! I can’t wait for straight and boring roads. We stayed at the Redding Elks twice during the summer of 2017, so we were looking forward to decent 50 amp, and … a great swimming pool! We were not disappointed. We parked… Continue reading Redding Elks Lodge & RV
Yosemite National Park – Part 2
June 22, 2021 was our last full day in Yosemite, and it was epic! Today’s destination was the Tuolumne Meadows area. However, we made a couple of stops along the way. Olmsted Pt. This was yet a different view of Half Dome from what we have seen. It was equally impressive. I followed a path from… Continue reading Yosemite National Park – Part 2
Yosemite National Park-Part 1
We arrived at Yosemite Lakes TT RV park on June 17th for six nights while we explore Yosemite National Park. Since Barry needed to be careful with his back, and we both needed to be respectful of the altitude and 100 degree heat, we decided we would do what we could, but we would not… Continue reading Yosemite National Park-Part 1
To Yosemite Lakes TT
The drive to Yosemite from Visalia Elks RV parking was initially quite pleasant as I drove 99 North to Fresno and then to the 41 North. But, OH MY! —once we were on the 49, it was hairpin curves, and tight “s-curves”, and switchbacks all over the place for over 30+ miles! VIDEOS:Feel the curves-… Continue reading To Yosemite Lakes TT
Unexpected Set Backs
A couple of medical issues provided a bit of drama, not to mention a bit of a scare as we were starting our summer adventures… Sorry–no real pictures to accompany most of this blog entry. I think you’ll understand why. This is also why it has been so important to us that we BOTH are… Continue reading Unexpected Set Backs
Beach Time with Nana & Papa
We ended our time in Southern California with a full week at Silver Strand State Beach, June 6-June 13. This timeframe worked out great since Justin was off work for most of the week. He was able to bring Isaac and Mona out to us on Tuesday to stay for 3 days/2 nights. This was… Continue reading Beach Time with Nana & Papa
Children’s Museum Revisited
June 4, 2021, we headed back to the New Children’s Museum of San Diego. Today the second floor is to be opened. We arrived early enough to be able to park inside the parking garage. (Full 3 hours for $10). Being within the first few in line, we headed directly to the second floor before… Continue reading Children’s Museum Revisited
Children’s Museum Reopens
Isaac was so excited to tell us that the New Children’s Museum of San Diego was reopening! We’ve had annual memberships for him (and Mona) since he was two years old. We took Isaac, Erika and Justin to the Imagine Children’s Museum in Everett when they came up to visit October 2017. Isaac was 13… Continue reading Children’s Museum Reopens
