Arline/Don California Day 15, Oct 27, 2019

Got up and fixed pancakes and bacon.....just love it.....  I wasn't in a hurry because if I get going too early the sun is in my eyes so took my time. Beautiful morning and love the campground.  Only had electric but it worked out fine because of going over to Gail's.  Still it was a wooded camp with view of the lake.  Beautiful sunrise...


Started planning my route for the day with Google Maps and saw that it offered several routes the main of which was a toll.  I started thinking that this whole trip has been nothing but interstate so I decided to take one of the other routes to see how driving 2 lane roads worked with the camper.  It is an hour longer but I felt I wasn't in any hurry to get to the next campground.   In a way it felt like Jesus was telling me that part of his creation were people and Interstate just doesn't really allow that.  Of course I saw plenty of people in San Diego....maybe too many.  Taking that route I felt more like it was seeing the grass routes of America and his creation.  Even though it took me an hour longer to go the back roads I thought it was worth it and it was great.   Of course they don't have rest areas on the back roads so I just went into a bank parking lot to have lunch.  The camper did well and I was able to navigate the smaller roads and towns without any problem.  In fact I think I might do more of this in the future.

Got to the Big Red Barn Campground without any problems and it is really a nice one.  They even have cable and I saw that it included Hallmark....well it has been a long time so I did a marathon session of Hallmark Christmas love stories........loved it!

10/28/19:  Slept well last night.   Kind of sad that this is my last day.....I am thinking about going home and spending another night at Lakeside but it is suppose to rain.  I guess I will make that decision when I get there.....nice to be footloose and fancy free...right David....
