Camping World, Bakersfield, CA

We have begun our migration north. We have realy enjoyed our time in Arizona, except for the 'foot' thing. The weather couldn't have been better for our first 'snow-bird' experience. The rest of the country has been hammered this winter.

We left Fort Mohave Thursdy morning after a nice good bye get together at Gene & Cyndi's house yesterday. We were on the road by 9AM for our 296 mile drive. I don't like to drive this far normally. There was nothing along the route except for desert and Barstow. We did stop for fuel in Techachapi. I paid $3.91 a gallon for diesel at a Love's station. Not to bad for California.

We are going to stop at Camping World (free parking & 50 Amp) for 2 nights while we visit Costco and Walmart and of course Camping World. I also wanted to stop off at Three Way Chevrolet, where we bought our truck and double check on any PM that might be due on the truck. I found out that all is good and no service is required for another 3000 miles or so.

Meanwhile, we are here.


Our trip north is going to be slow. We have time to kill while the weather warms up. I don't think we will be entering Oregon till around March 23rd or so. We plan on checking out the Redwoods, San Francisco, wine country, and the ocean. Also another visit to Donna's two brothers in Oroville, CA.

Lovin' every minute of it!

  1. Hi Allen & Donna,
    If you will be passing by Sacramento on your way north, perhaps we can meet up for dinner or drinks? We hope to head out FT this summer and would love to RV chat with you if you have the time.
