New park in Oregon


We left AZ May 1 and spent the night in Palm Springs.

We then went to Menifee and on the way there met a fellow who does work on Aqua-Hots and sold him our left over parts and tools. While at Menifee Larry replaced the fluorescent bulbs in several of our light fixtures with LED strips. They are so much brighter and take less electricity so it is a win-win situation.

While we were there we took a nice bike ride to the Sundance Meadows in Aguanga, CA and the SKP JoJoba Hills RV park just to 'check them out'. Along the way we saw some awesome sculptors along the road.

I had a nice text from Todd and Dawn sent me a gift card for Red Lobster for Mother's Day and I received this red rose at church. We rode to Winchester to Jolene's for lunch and then stopped at Stater Bros. for a few groceries before heading back to the rv park.

We went to Girard to have our awning repaired on May 15 and left for Acton, CA May 16 traveling right through LA –not fun!

Hope we never have to do that again! Since there was no Red Lobster near Menifee but there was one in Palmdale (15 miles from Acton) we went there after church May 20. The wind was really bad and Larry had a hard time keeping us going so we returned taking the side roads instead of the freeway where we could go slower.

We were at Soledad Canyon TTN over Memorial Day weekend and I wish I had taken pictures of all the 500 tents plus hundreds of trailers, 5th wheels and motor homes that were there. I've never seen so many campers in one place before! I did walk down to the pool on Monday after most everyone had left and it is a big pool.

We were glad to leave CA May 29 and spent the night at Preferred RV in Pahrump and May 30 at New Frontier RV park in Winnemucca, NV, a new park for us. It is further from I-80 so less interstate noise and nice views of the surrounding mountains.

We arrived at our new RV ranch in Bend May 31 around 3:30 PM to very cool weather, 57º! We set up only the necessary things and will finished today when it is supposed to be warmer. So grateful to be back in OR and to be sitting for a month.
