A beautiful day in Roseville, CA. Yesterday, we traveled from Bidwell Canyon near Lake Oroville to Roseville, via Marysville, to visit with Lou's cousin. The camp sites at Bidwell are "Yellowstone Level" as Adam and Aaron may remember from our trip there this past summer. We almost had enough leveling blocks to level the rig but were able to sleep without sliding out of the bed.
We are currently parked in front of their house (WAHOO, Free Camp Spot). Today, we will enjoy the sunshine (low 70's) and visit the wine country. Many think that all of California is wine country but our trip yesterday proved that wrong. We passed through walnut, pistachio and olive orchards plus many other crops like strawberries and unknown veggies. The route took us down a number of connecting farm roads, narrow and unmarked but our GPS got us here with no problems. At least 1 more night here in Roseville before we continue our journey toward the Gold Rush country of Angels camp.. or thereabouts.
Did I mention the wines? We had a glass of Double Dog Dare, Cab Sauvignon last nite. For $1.67 / bottle, it was really good. Not Rosemount or Arbor Crest, for sure, but a good table wine. May even get a couple of bottles for the trip to enjoy down the road.
