CAMPING AT TRINITY LAKE

Monday 8/9/10 - ROAD TRIP

Came and saw a awesome car in the driveway
Packed up
Left at 1:00 pm
1-hour late
Went into Petaluma
Got oma’s campstove
One last run through safeway
Got panini for lunch 

Played around with the new car technology

Set the ball  in motion by heading north to HWY 12 rather than backtracking south
Headed up through Calistoga
Passed CHATEU MONTELENA
Had to stop !
Saw old faithful Geyser (What??? I thought this was in Wyoming or something! ) 
They planted  bamboo so you have to pay to see it

Came up through central valley
Stopped at a farmer’s market
Intersected HWY 5 
Hit redding at 7:00 pm
Took 45 min. to decide where to stop to eat
Pulled into a family-run  Italian place 
No customers exept for a couple with 1 bottle of wine
Daddy: seafood feticcine
J: ham tortilline
TERRIBLE 
C: Pizza
G: ravioli
Started up the mountain to Weaverville
  Following Iphone instructions

Turned north on HWY 3
Destined for the trinity alps
45 min. later saw signs for KOA
Pulled into wrong entrance
In pitch black,  The Tentmaster (_G!) guided us to set up tent

Pulled sleeping bags into tent
Fell asleep
