Update on travels

We left Pahrump, NV Wednesday morning and drove to Barstow, CA. Thursday we traveled to Bakersfield, CA. Coming over the mountains and looking down on the valley was breathtaking. After so much brown---desert and rocks---we looked down on a patchwork of green. Bakersfield has all sorts of orchards of citrus, fruits and nuts. It is amazing what water can accomplish. You know why Jesus used water so much in his teachings. Friday it was on to Bass Lake, CA which is east of Fresno, up in the mountains. It is lovely but the mountains block my Verizon signal so I am using "Linksy" today. We will see if it will allow me to upload pictures. This campground believes in squeezing as many folks in a small amount of space as possible. We were very lucky to get the last spot in a relatively level area. Some folks are parked down in a hollow or up on a bluff. We are here until next Friday. We will need to take a hike to see the actual Bass Lake. From what I saw as we were coming into the area, it is beautiful. Next week we go into Yosemite. More from the Happy Travelers later. Until then, ENJOY EACH AND EVERY MOMENT.
