We made it out of town about 8:00 this morning. It took about a half hour to get to I-5, but once on the freeway there was no stopping us. Fueled up before Vancouver so we won't have to fuel up in Oregon. For those that are unaware, you can't pump your own fuel in Oregon. Last year I pulled into a station where there were already 5 or 6 cars at the pumps with 1 attendant. It took almost an hour to get out of there! I shouldn't need to fuel up until somewhere near Sacramento. We are staying just south of Roseburg tonight. We pulled in about 3:30 this afternoon. We took a walk around, then came back and fixed some dinner. I managed to program the televisions so we get all of the available channels, and we also figured out how to use the microwave. We're getting pretty high tech!!
Tomorrow I hope to pull out by 8:00, and make it to Lodi California. It's about a 400 mile run, so with a lunch stop and a fuel stop, I would hope to roll into Lodi about 4:00 in the afternoon. All went well today. We're able to cruise easily at 60 - 65 mph. 400 miles takes us about 8 hours with a couple of stops. That's enough for 1 day. The new Motorhome is much more comfortable and is much easier to drive than the old one. One negative is that we don't have as much interior space when the slides are in. This is not a complaint, just an observation.
Until next time, Ernie
