From the Sublime to the Ridiculous




The distance from Carson City, NV to Santa Nella, CA is 240 miles.  We started out early for us, a little past 10 AM, and arrived at 5:15 PM. It was a long, long drive.  We took Highway 50 into Lake Tahoe then hooked up to the I-5 near
Sacramento. It was sad to see the sign that said, "South to Los Angeles," because it meant that we are really on the way back home.

The first part of the drive today was really beautiful, with mountains to climb, lots of green pine trees, and then along the shore of Lake Tahoe.  Once we hit the I-5 things turned golden brown with the exception of an occasional grove of fruit or nuts trees and vineyards.

Our home for the night is the very, very old Santa Nella RV Park, which as you can see is right at the intersection of the I-5 and Highway 33.  We can see Pea Soup Anderson's out our kitchen window.

Up early tomorrow to Wine Country RV Resort in Paso Robles for the next two nights.
