Here we are at the Flag City RV Resort in Lodi California. It was another long drive on the I-5, bumpy and hot for about 5 hours. We don't usually like to drive that far, but we have to if we want to make Oceano, CA by Friday.
Our scenery today was mostly the varied agriculture of California. We passed lots of nuts, fruit, olives, grapes, and corn growing on both sides of the freeway. The most interesting fields were the sunflowers and the rice patties along the Sacramento river. We also saw some beautiful purple flowers that will become eggplants. The sunflowers were almost all dried, but here is a picture of the rice growing in large fields in water from the river.It was a little busy driving through the city of Sacramento where the freeway was 4 lanes of traffic, but things calmed down a bit once we got out of the city. Then it was back to sharing the 2 lanes with the big rigs.
Another long drive tomorrow to Coalinga and the ugly Almond Tree Resort, thank goodness we are only staying one night. It's not my favorite park by any means, but there isn't much to choose from on the I-5. Can't wait till we hit the beach on Friday.
