First Day Out

We planned on leaving at 6:00 a.m. and managed to get off around 8:30 a.m.  The delay was caused by additional sleep!  Somehow it really didn't matter.  The camp office in Bass Lake closed at 5:00 p.m. and we got in around 6:00 p.m., but we called and they left the information we needed pinned to the bulletin board for us.  Found out on the way that the folks in Hesperia installed our lights incorrectly on the Jeep when towing (the two orange turn signal lights come on instead of the red brake lights).  We stopped in Bakersfield to try and find someone that could fix this. No luck!  So we will try again today in Fresno.  We are told this is an easy fix ... we sure hope so ... it seems like brake lights might be something we want.

On the way we gassed up twice.  First at the Flying J in Barstow ...  This was really nice ... easy in and easy out.  The Flying J in Bakersfield is not as nice ... no RV parking ... we left and went down the road to Love's.  We used the truck island at Loves ... they aren't thrilled with this, but it was an easy fill up and they had a Subway shop that was great for lunch.

Our first "resort" stop is in Bass Lake.  Wonderful!   Take a look at this scenery.  This will be home for the next week.
