On the road again…
We finally pulled into Indio about 5:30 PM tonight. I was not able to get online last night but the drive to Bakersfield was uneventful. Unlike today that’s for sure. We were on the road by 9:00 AM with a first stop at Four Corners for breakfast. Did not happen, just outside of Tehachapi we were diverted off the freeway due to a very bad accident a few miles up the road. We found a place to park in a pull off area about half a mile from the freeway. It almost looked like a RV Park before long, as well as big rigs and cars etc. We were there three and half hours when they finally opened the road. Once back on the freeway, it was not long before we were going about three miles an hour, down to one lane passing the accident. Not sure how many vehicles were involved but one big rig was burnt down to the tires, the trailer was also burnt. There were casualties so that is why it took so long to clear the accident. You would think it would give motorist a heads up, like drive a bit better within some kind of speed limit, but no………. there were idiots doing stupid things, sometimes I just don’t get it. Just thankful we are here at our destination, a long day but looking forward to a nice week in the desert.
The park looks quiet, only seventy five coaches in here now. By the end of the month it should be closer to capacity. November 1st is the start of the season here in the desert. The grounds are being replanted, it looks a little bare right now but in a month or so should be gorgeous.
First thing on the agenda tomorrow is a nice bike ride around the park. It is a little cool here right now but should be back to the 90’s by the end of week. Ed is looking forward to the hot weather and pool time.
Until Tomorrow…….. Goodnight!
