Clear & sunny, warm days COLD nights.
We awoke this morning to a frozen solid water hose and a cold RV, (42 F) cuz furnace did not come on so we went out to Perko’s for a great breakfast. For $5.99 I got a 2egg mushroom & cheese omelette, 2 sausages, hash browns & biscuits & gravy – these I gave to Sheila. Sheila had two huge potato pancakes, 2 eggs and 2 slices of bacon for $6.99. Back at the RV, I tried the furnace again and amazingly it came on! Back at the RV I broke part of their water tap trying to shut it off, it was frozen in the pipe, I reported it to the office and they said don’t worry, no problem. They are apparently setting records for cold in northern & central California. We pulled out of the Modesto Elks at 10:40 @ 148327 km. We pulled into a Pilot stn at 12:05 @ 148447 & out at 12:30, I try to use Pilot or Flying J as much as possible as I get 2 cents off per gallon. Doesn’t sound like much but I put in 43 USG last fill so it adds up. Sheila took over driving from 12:30 to 1:50 and we arrived at Orange Grove RV Park @ 3:05 @ 148679. After checking in we immediately went to the RV washing location. We got most of the grime off the RV & the car, and it’s free, they even supply the hose & spray nozzle. Then we pulled into our site, hooked up & went picking oranges, they are delicious, we got a cpl dozen quite quickly. Now for an evening of TV & staying warm. We watched a PBS 2 hr show on Custers Last Stand, it was quite interesting and the battle information matched up with what we were told when we went there last year. On the late news they are forecasting just on freezing temps for here tonight.
Distance travelled – 352 km – 219 miles - Sheila drove 1 hr 20 mins
