We travelled to Clear Lake Oaks, CA to visit Ann, a friend of Tom's from school.  She set us up in a private community campground.  It was a lovely spot.  But it was definitely HOT in that part of the state.  We didn't have hook-ups there so we ran the generator for a while so we could have air conditioning.  The generator is a bit noisy

Our spot for two days, at a private campground.

A beautiful view in the morning from out campsite.

We went through Napa Valley on the way to Eli and Mildred's (Tom' sis and brother in law). who live in Redwood City, CA.  The Valley was even more beautiful that I had imagined, especially Calistoga and St. Helena.  The whole place smells like wine.

We'll be in Redwood City until after the Pumpkin Festival in Half Moon Bay which will be on October 17th and 18th.  Took a day trip to the Bay this day to check out places we might be able to park the RV.  Forget about the campgrounds, they were booked long ago.  We spotted several spots we might park.  It was another hot day, but not as hot in Half Moon Bay as it was in Redwood City.  We took a little bike ride around Tom's old stomping grounds.

Tom attached a crate so Hercules could go on bike rides with us.
