TRAVEL DAY
From: Ironhorse Campground in Glory Hole Recreation Area at New Melones Lake, Tuttletown, CA.
To: Happy Time RV Park, Dunnigan, CA.
Day 160 – The calendar says today is the first day of Spring; that is definitely obvious here! It’s much greener now than it was when we got here just a few days ago. So, Happy Spring everyone!
A RAINY DAY.
Day 159 – It began raining this morning and rained on & off for most of the day. The high today was a sweltering 51 degrees, ho ho. It certainly hampered the shenanigans of the young weekend campers who ran around like crazy in between the periods of rain.

Day 158 – We slept well last night. No traffic noise, quiet campground (it’s not the weekend yet), happy cats birdwatching from the windows of the RV, and waking up to fluorescent green shining from the new spring growth in the trees.

From: Flag City RV Resort, Lodi, CA – Cosumnes River Preserve & Staten Island Preserve.
To: Ironhorse Campground in Glory Hole Recreation Area at New Melones Lake, Tuttletown, CA – Soulsbyville.
Day 157 – The campground cleared out this morning as usual, and we were one of those RV’s that left. Our journey was to be fairly short, so we didn’t hurry out. The girls didn’t appear too upset to be hitting the road; they prefer trees to other RV’s as neighbors when we’re camping.
COSUMNES RIVER PRESERVE.
Day 156 – Another sunny, breezy day, the high was 73 degrees. Every day we watch the parade of large RV’s leaving, and then an hour or two later a new parade of large RV’s arrives. Almost everyone here stays only one night; it’s a great stopover destination right off Interstate 5. You’ve got your gas stations, your wine tasting, and your fast food restaurants right by you. So convenient. Ha ha.

Day 155 – It started raining last night and rained through part of the morning. We did the rest of the laundry, then headed in to Lodi to Sprouts for some grocery shopping. We finished our chores, had lunch at the RV, and then headed out for some fun.

To:Flag City RV Resort, Lodi, CA – Cosumnes River Preserve & Staten Island Preserve.
Day 154 – It was 10:55 a.m. when we left Los Banos Creek Campground – 60 degrees and sunny with a nice breeze. The water was like glass this morning and we wished we could stay longer, but we have to leave this SRA sometime!
ANOTHER LAZY DAY.
Day 153 – It was 55 degrees this morning. A front came through and it cooled down some; it was a bit windy again. Daylight Savings Time and we lost an hour – one less hour to nap, LOL.

Day 152 – It was 45 degrees this morning and sunny when we got up. We sat around with our coffee/tea, relaxing in the RV – then continued relaxing in the tent with our books. The campground was busy and fairly loud. It’s at least half full and it’s a popular place for people to go fishing. Also, there were several families and/or friends camping together. Everyone was having a great time either fishing or hanging out at the beach. Our campsite was isolated somewhat from it all, still it was a noisy day.

Day 151 – It has been 5 months today since we left our home in New York to begin this trip. We have now stayed at least two nights in 14 different states. Today we’re driving a short distance to a different campground within the San Luis Reservoir State Recreation Area, the Los Banos Creek Campground.
