Moving Out of California

Getting Out of California

Time to Travel

This is the start of our journey.  Been in San Jose for 10 years and it's time to move on.  For the past few week's we have been packing and getting ready.   The fun part was getting Bessy read for the ride.  Bessy is our 1999 Nissan path finder we bought for Courtney years ago when she was swimming - thank Court for the ride.   She's now a camping machine.    


Bessy Inside and Out ready for Travel and Living

We gave her a test ride last weekend with great success.  A few minor tweaks and we are ready to go.

Moving Day is Tomorrow

 10/30/2020 Tomorrow is moving day… yeh.    It was a long wait but just one more night and we are on the road.   The moving truck is supposed to show up at 8:00AM and have us out of here before the end of the day.   Let’s hope, not too much has gone as plan so far on the move.    Sandy and I are killing time with margaritas and hanging out with our stuff.   Bessy is packed with everything we will need for the next month (we hope) and maybe more.    After they load the truck tomorrow, we are off.   First stop will be a night in Bakersfield CA tonight and then on to Independence CA in the morning.    People only go to Independence CA for one thing…    to ride Onion Valley Rd.    Cannot wait and more tomorrow when we are on the road. In garage with our stuff...

Good by Tennessee, Hello Kentucky

 11/14/20 11/14/20 Time fly’s by…   it has been 3 days since I last posted something.   Let’s recap for you.   We had our 1st camp fire.   Sandy and I spent the last 6 nights camping.   We were lucky and showered on day 2 but have been without since.   That means 5 days without a shower.   We spent 3 nights at the 101 Marina, what stood out is each night was colder than the one before, but the days would warm up to be nice.    We spent more time inside the car/tent than normal.   After 101 Marina we headed east about 5 hours to Fort Pillow State Park in Tennessee.     On the way I we crossed the Mississippi River, what a treat.   There were several very large barges just under the bridge, the river was huge.    The Tennessee state line must be in the middle of the Mississippi. We arrived at Fort Pillow on Friday night, so the place was packed with weekend campers.   It reminded me a lot...

Day 38: Amite City LA to Poplarville MS

Image
We wasted a night in a hotel last night thinking it was going to rain.  I finished yesterday in a drizzle but by 6PM last night it was clear and no rain.  We left from the Comfort Inn in Amite City with the usual daily enthusiasm.   Ready for another day... Wasted a night in a hotel, weather was nice this morning. The highlight of today was leaving Louisiana and crossing the Mississippi border (No jokes about yesterday, I know I was a day early).  If this tells you anything the ride was generally boring today, nothing to see.   This is a make up picture for when we entered LA There was no sign on the West side so we got it going out!!!! We will only be in this state for a couple of days. I was expecting about a 70 mile day.  When we stopped for lunch in Bogalusa LA, I was at 50 miles and the ACA route said 30 more to go.  I was not looking forward to the extra 10 miles.   The best lunch in town... I am in my chair in the background....
