Rolling down the highway

After having spent almost the entire month suffering with allergies, we were more than ready to leave the Sacramento Valley.  We got on the road and stopped for lunch at Rolling Hills Casino in Corning to insure that we wouldn't arrive at the RV park before 1 p.m.  We also knew that there would be ample parking at the casino and that their buffet was good and not terribly expensive.  The only thing that would have made this stop better was if it had been Tuesday or Thursday and as seniors, we could have gotten the buffet at half price lol. Walking between the truck and casino, it was apparent that we were still in allergy territory - yuck. 

Once we got settled in to our site north of Redding, we were elated to discover that neither of us were having any allergy issues woo hoo!  After spending months in the desert and then a month in a gravel parking lot, our senses are almost on overload with having trees and lawn at our site.


What a joy to be able to sit outside in our chairs and listen to singing birds and chat with friendly neighbors.  We will be here for the week to put the Memorial Day weekend behind us before venturing north.

  1. Seniors? Hardly.

    I'm jealous of you and John for being able to leave the allergy ridden valley.

    1. There are places that consider anyone over 50 as seniors. We have come to accept/enjoy the benefit even though we think being a "senior" really is a mindset to which we don't yet subscribe :)
