Barb - We drove the last 65 miles to the ocean (again) and clinked a bottle of liquid over the fact that we got here! We are still in the middle of California's agriculture zone - Monterey County grows many vegetables and fruits. On I-5, we were surrounded by walnut and almond trees. The temperature in Santa Nella when we were "landing" and hooking up the RV's various cables and hoses was at least 95 degrees. Today as we were doing the same procedures in Marina, the temp was 64 degrees and tonight it is 57! The sand dunes are right across the street from the RV park. Ike and I, then later all three of us, took a walk on the total sand trail to the ocean - maybe 1/4 mile in length. They are trying to re-establish many of the native sand and sea plants, so I took a picture of the colorful ice plant as a sample.
Ed - Today was better for my mechanical issues - I did not have any on the RV. However, when we arrived at the RV park, the power pedestal was not wired correctly and I needed to find the park electricical person and have him rewire the power pedestal before I could power the RV. After that everything worked well. We definitely had a difference in temperature from morning to afternoon. When we left Santa Nella, the temperature was hot and rising. I ran the RV air conditioner as well as the truck air conditioner all the way to the coast. Be the time we arrived at Marina, the temperture was below 70 degrees and we turned everything off and opened the windows! Now it's time to close windows again. We'll have some road noise from Hwy. 1 so it's OK to stay warm and quieter at the same time.
