A couple days of R&R in beautiful downtown Whiskeytown. Actually, we are outside of Redding , CA at the Whiskeytown National Recreation Area on Whiskeytown Lake. Whiskeytown was an actual town during the gold rush days until the dam was built forming the lake. Since the town was inundated with water, they named the lake Whiskeytown. It's a really pretty area, just a little damp with the rains from the Pacific storms. We'll probably just be here 1 more night before heading down towards Sacramento. At $3.50 per nite the price isn't too bad at all:)
The new tranny is performing as expected, nice and smooth. We discovered a small leak around the kitchen window that I'll work on when we hit a dry spell. Not sure yet just where the water is getting in.
While the stew is cooking in the slow cooker, we'll take a drive over to Weaverville (a little West of here) and look around. I've still got to get used to being a "tourist". Too many years living in Orlando, I guess. Enough for now, I'm going to read my book and listen to the pitter patter of rain drops on the roof for a while.
Our best to all!

Thanks so much for the postcard. Your blog is terrific, almost as good as being there. It is also quite beautiful but I have to say not quite as pretty as God's country up here.
Sugar misses you both too.
Love, Carol
