Lodi,CA to Mt Shasta, CA

Continuing North on I-5 towards Mt Shasta, CA, about 250 miles. First day we had seen cloudy skies in several weeks plus morning temp down to 59*. We were surprised to stop at a Rest Area and not be able to park.  All the spots were filled with tractor trailer trucks.  We can't use our rig's bathroom on the road without putting a slide out which isn't recommended unless the rig is level, which means putting down jacks and levelers.  It wasn't an immediate emergency so  we pushed on 40 miles to the next rest stop that had room for 20 big rigs! Phew.

Old bus grave yard
Lake Shasta.  Water levels have improved greatly.

Climbing up the pass out of Redding.


We were camped at Mt Shasta KOA just
outside of town. It was time for afternoon coffee so we found a little bookstore with espresso.  We sat on the bench outside and observed the town on a
 Thursday afternoon.  Traffic was pretty slow.

Creative use of skiis.
