We leave the gold discovery area, retracing the journey we
made from Sacramento in the car
yesterday and, after stopping to see why someone pointed at our RV while
driving by, only to discover that the door to the rear cargo bay is open! Fortunately nothing has fallen out and I'm
able to close and lock it, and soon we're heading west on US50 again.
This time we get on I-5 north, going right through the
center of Sacramento, where the traffic
is surprisingly light in the middle of the day.
Once north of the city we take off on CA99 heading for our next RV
resort - Lake Minden
- for a 3 night stay. People we met at
Ponderosa told us to avoid this place, but it's on our route so we ignore the
advice and we're glad we did.
We were traveling through fertile fruit orchards and when we
make the turn off the highway we're alongside peach trees all the way to the
resort. As the name implies, it's on a
lake, and most people come here to fish. We easily find a nice site with a full hookup
and get settled in. A couple of feral
kittens check us out from a distance and as we're eating dinner outside. We're
able to get them to come close enough to lick our (paper) plates, but not close
enough to pet. Good thing Quill didn't
see them.
We were warned of mosquitoes here and they would be sure to
come for me, but we don't see any. So
after a quiet day we get a good night's sleep.
Tuesday is an even quieter day. Vicky works on her H&R Block online class,
while I take care of the laundry and do some online research for our 40th
Anniversary trip to Italy
next year.
We again end with dinner outside but no sign of the feral
kittens today.
