RECAP – End of Month 3, Trip #3

One month ago, we were camping near the Pacific Ocean by the redwood forests in Northern CA. We spent much of this month still camping near the Ocean or in the redwood forests, but we’re slowly moving south & things are changing. It’s raining much less now; there’s more sun & less clouds and fog. We still see redwoods, but by the end of Month 4, we’ll be away from them completely. The coastline here in northern CA has been less rugged than in OR but just as lovely. We’ve continued to encounter areas where fires have recently come through & destroyed most in their paths. And the trees, brush, and bushes are more desert-like plus everything is drier. More people, but for the most part, not overly crowded, plenty of great country roads, farms, orchards, and wine country, very nice scenery. We’re headed out tomorrow for a new campground, and it, too, will be near the Ocean. We travelled only 352 miles in the RV this month, lots more miles in the car. We stayed at only six different campgrounds. We’re still  enjoying the slow pace, camping for longer periods of time at one spot & thoroughly visiting everything in each area that interested us. The redwood forests, the wine country, the beautiful rolling hills, and the Pacific Ocean where the rivers meet the sea – it’s all been worth taking the time to really see everything.
