Off to the mountains

September 6, 2009
United Trails CG, Hirschdale, CA

Yesterday, we packed up the coach and rental in Sacramento and headed to our next destination, just outside Truckee, CA.  By early afternoon, we were nestled into our space among the pines, enjoying the cooler temperatures.  This park is the jumping off point for the two-week caravan we'll be doing, starting on the 10th.  Several other participants (including the co-leaders and "tailgunners") are already here, so we got a chance to "meet and greet" with the Irwins, Barrons, McCrays, and Hams yesterday.  We were a little concerned that we'd have a tough time getting in early on short notice given the holiday weekend but we worried needlessly as the park is nowhere near full.  In fact, it's pretty empty.  Wonder what's up with that?

In any event, we'll plan to use the next few days to do a thorough cleaning and tackle a few projects around the coach.  It'll be good to have a bit of relaxation before we pick up again with the caravan.

Your rental is a lot more fancy then ours.....Lets see, you own a Rover and we own a Honda; your rental is a Chrysler and ours is a Kia....Do you think there is a trend here?
