Kings Canyon National Park

It sure has been a while since I have posted.  I feel really bad about that.  I did mean to get to this post sooner but life catches up with you sometimes.

More repairs

We let our son and a friend use our trailer a while back.  They were helping with the security at the next county’s fair.  I delivered the trailer and then picked it up.  After we used it the next time, after about 3-4 days we would smell something foul around the bathroom.  Unfortunately it was [...]

As part of my job in the local education field there are meetings to go to. Oftentimes these meetings are in Sacramento. This was one such time. I had meetings on the Thursday and Friday before spring break was starting for our daughter so we thought it would be good to incorporate [...]

San Clemente State Beach

It has been a while since I have posted and, therefore, it has been a while since we visited the San Clemente State Beach.  It was during the first weekend of February.  It was with the California group from AirForums, the rallies are discussed in this thread.
We got there on Thursday and stayed in the [...]
