Summer in California: Northwest to Paicines

Interstate 15 North

Eric & I retrace most of our

 drive from Acton, on our

 way to Paicines.

California State Route 138

West toward Palmdale

The last car of a train -

this is a rare photo.

Traffic is moving smoothly

at 10:00 am.

California State Route 14

North

I take pictures of this

ribbon of water each

time we drive past.

Returning to California State

Route 138 North

Today's drive takes us on

unfamiliar roads from

here on.

Boondockers in an open field

Working on power lines

Interstate 5 North toward

Sacramento

Elevation

4,000 Feet

The Credit Price for Diesel

is $4.58 per gallon.

Anything under $5.00 

in California feels like

a bargain.

California's Cattle Stockyards

look a lot like the ones in Texas.

Here's our Exit.

These "dunes" are rolling

 hills of dried grass.

This is a scenic drive.

Eric & I pass farms.

Cattle graze roadside

The road turns & there are

fields of Grape Vines.

We arrive at Thousand 

Trails San Benito RV 

Campground.

Registration & the

Camp Store

Our pull through Campsite

has full hookups.

The Voltage is OK... 115.

Eric and I enjoy the benefits of partial shade and can watch the Nightly News.
