October 24, 2009

Today we leave Bakersfield for Lake Havasu. It is a little over 300miles and a good 7 hour drive. I will follow Ken in the car over the pass Tehachapi so he can get a good run with the motorhome as we are loaded to the hilt. Then at the top we will hook the car back onto the motorhome.

I forgot to tell you all but the first night here in Bakersfield around 8 PM I heard sirens and a helicopter right outside the gate of the RV Park, about 1 block. The next morning 2 retired, married, man and woman cops from Portland were walking their little dog and they told us the helicopter had his spotlight on the car they were chasing!! I swear, thought we were in the middle of a filming of "COPS!!!" Think all the Bakersfield police cars were out there as the sirens sounded like 100. Exciting.

We will try to get out of here by 8 AM and get to Havasu by at least 4 or 4:30.

We went to a store yesterday called Food Maxx and what a produce section they had. We went crazy buying veggies like they were going out of style. Very inexpensive too.

Well, more when we get settled in Havasu. Stay warm.
