Redding to Orange Grove RV Resort (Bakersfield)

Well it rained hard all night and when we opened our door we thought we were in a castle as we had a mote....OMG! No matter where you walked you got your feet soaked! Awful! Showered, which was a waste of time, as by time we got back to the rig, we were soaking wet! Hooked up in pouring rain, dried off in the truck. But the next hurdle was to cross this bridge which the creek flooded over it! 

Water was 8" deep, and flowing very fast.  No choice as it was leave or stay another night....oh well, we knew we had insurance, and wanted to get out of this godforsaken park! 

After eight hours of driving in the rain yesterday and two hours of driving in the rain today, it finally stopped raining. Clouds persisted, but the temperature rose up to 63F!!! 

Nice drive through Sacramento but thank God for GPS as there were a million exits, merges, but Maggie Magellan got us through it all. 

Some cool things to see, but the highlight was Panda Cows! At least that's what we called them. 

The next part of the trip to Orange Grove was uneventful, a bit long, but we were getting 10.5 miles to the gallon, woo hoo!! Pulled in and set up at 7 PM. Opened the door (you can barely see the dining table slide-out to the right) and will pick some fresh oranges in the morning to make Mimosas for breakfast! 

Just kidding we don't drink in the morning, will only be rum dumb from the rum last night. Get up in the morning, and only 4.5 hours to final destination! Yippee-fu***ng-yay!!
