Paso Robles, Ca. Wine Country RV Resort

Rain, Rain Go Away!!

We didn't have internet available at Cachumla Lake park, which is OK because there is not a lot to report. Its been rainy and cold here for the past couple of days. Tuesday was a complete washout. It rained hard and the area received around 2" of rain for the day. We haven't done much but visit some wineries and read books.

We did get to meet up with some fellow 2005 full-timer graduation classmates! Bill and Helen follow our blog, knew we were in Santa Ynez; They pulled into nearby Solvang on Tuesday. We headed out on Wednesday morning, with a box of danishes in hand, to catch up on each others travels since the graduation rally in Quartzite, in January. It looks like we might be able to meet up with them, along with some other 2005 full-timers, Gary and Jenny, up in the Seattle area later this summer!

Later in the day on Wednesday, it did stop raining long enough for me to complete a few installation projects around our home. I installed a protect-a-tow, which a cover that goes between the motorhome and the Suzuki, keeps debris and rocks from ruining the paint.

I also got around to installing the EZ-step add-on step. The thing I really liked about this system were the adjustable legs on each side that stabilize the whole platform. In the pic here, we really don't need the extended step, but we really like the stability the legs provide. So, far I give the product 2 thumbs up.




Today, Thursday, we packed up and made the 100 mile drive up highway 101 to Paso Robles. We drove through some really spectacular countryside. So, we're here, in the Wine Country RV Resort, for the week; Mostly for the wine tasting in the area.

The weather report for this week is continued cold and rainy. Sounds like perfect weather for drinking wine! Hopefully we'll get a couple of days to get the road bikes out; There is some nice rolling hills and the roads have nice wide shoulders for riding.

The content of the journal entries for the next week will be weather dependent. If it's nice, there will be plenty to write about; If it's raining, I'll try not to bore you with the details of us sitting around watching TV, reading books and drinking wine!

Gotta love Spring in Central California!!
