I don't know how far north you've gotten by now, but the California Coast north of San Francisco is truly worth the drive, especially if you have good weather.

We stayed at Westside Regional Park, Bodega Bay, a no-hookup park which has water, and Manchester Beach / Mendocino Coast KOA just south of Fort Bragg. Also stayed at Golden Bear RV Resort, Klamath, Ca twice....you can park looking out over the Klamath River right before it enters the Pacific, very close to a large Redwood Forest just south of Klamath. Also stayed at Smith River RV Resort near Oregon Boarder and visited Jedidiah Smith Redwoods Park which, I believe, is where Star Wars was filmed if my memory holds true. In 2012 we stayed at Ancient Redwoods RV Park just below Eureka. Both those years we visited Crater Lake, staying at Stewart State Park Campground in 2013 and Crater Lake RV Park in 2012. Like both parks, liked the price of the State Park better, and they were just putting in 4G service near that park that year so you won't have to put up with slow 2G like we did if you pick that park. You can see all of this on our maps page on our blog. --Dave (GoingRvWay.com)Dave Burdick (GoingRvWay.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10706797381982584920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092960427378302566.post-50821317597153279372015-03-17T13:55:27.317-05:002015-03-17T13:55:27.317-05:00Hello Betty.

That is too close for my comfort, but I have found several other places to see the Redwoods.

I had it on my desk at work for many years before I retired. I still have, but not on display.

It is a Nokia Lumia Icon 929. I purposely got this cell phone for it's quality camera as well as being a Windows phone. It is really convenient since it is small enough to carry in my shirt pocket or back pocket. It has other features on the camera but I usually just point and shoot. <br /><br />I'm not sure where I'll be going next year. Maine was nice, but not sure if I'll make it back there again or not. <br /><br />Have a great day.

Exceptionally clear with a great depth of field.<br /><br />If you make another swing east and can handle dry camping, give me heads up and you can join us if we're in Maine at the time.
