Blue Heron to California/Home

It's hard to imagine we are only 3-1/2 hours from home today ... We are parked at the Redding Elks Lodge for the night to visit a few relatives nearby, then we point the bus towards Auburn.

But first, a few pix from our stay at Blue Heron RV Park, a real gem on the Klamath River in Hornbrook, CA. This was a first-class park, but probably not for a family with kids, as the river was very close. Also, we had some unexpected visitors in camp ... have a look:















Parking was level and on concrete, with a patio. Quiet and very friendly, helpful staff cruising around keeping things safe, and toting large poop-bags as you might imagine with the equestrian visitors. We were one of only four campers at the park .. very private. So, bagels and coffee were the order for breakfast with the wonderful noise of the river in the background.













So ... I guess this post is it for this adventure, anyway! We will pull into our home Park sometime this afternoon and begin the process of re-orientation to living on-the-grid again. This has been an incredible journey, and Louise and I seriously considered doing it full-time at one point ... but, we also love being at home and near family.

Thanks for riding along with us and sharing in our adventures. I'm sure there will be more to come in the future. In fact, we have a family reunion of sorts planned for the first week in October. Our usual trek to the McCloud River was cancelled this year due to the fires, so we will join family at J&S RV Resort, only an hour from our house. 

You see ... there really is no place like home! Hmmmm, where have I heard that before?

The stats: 8,661 miles traveled, 126 nights (4.2 months) away, 31 states touched, and approximately 1,237 gallons of gas consumed.

Cheers and beers from Dennis and Louise.
