We are in our 7th day here in Red Bluff, California. It’s just north of “Resume Speed” and just south of “boondocks”. We will be heading into Oregon on Saturday.
Actually, the Durango RV Resort here in Red Bluff is a first class park, one of the nicest that we’ve been in. It is situated along the Sacramento River, and has all the nice amenities that one could want: pools, showers, laundry, a store, huge spaces (our space, which is typical, is about 18′ x 90′), nice landscaping, big shade trees, etc.
Also nice is a small shopping center located right next door (walking distance), which has a laundromat, a grocery store, a Chinese restaurant, a Shari’s Restaurant, a gas station, etc. Also, the best restaurant in town (as rated by Trip Advisor) is just around the corner: Luigi’s Pizza and Pasta.
Here’s Charlie on “date night” at Shari’s; doesn’t she look nice!
There is pretty much nothing to do in Red Bluff. It’s a low-key agricultural area where they roll up the city sidewalk at 7 p.m. The Post Office is unusual, though. The Postmaster seems to like Pez dispensers, and the locals contribute to his collection, which is displayed within the Post Office. There are at least 200 of the toys.
Our current space here is separated from the Sacramento River by a 40′ grass greenbelt, within which the dogs play ball and run around. When the dogs get hot, they plop in the wading pool. The management here seems to be OK with dogs off leash as long as they are well-behaved. Very nice.
We are now settling into a rhythm re: our RV traveling. Charlie is doing a bit of work, but nothing like previous years, because son Jonathan has taken on the main load.
I’m kept busy doing errands, keeping things clean, cooking, and taking care of the dogs. As for them, they absolutely love RV’ing: playing in the grass, smelling the smells, and getting to “go outside” as often as they like.
Baby has matured a lot in the past year, is very good about letting us know when she has to pee or poop. No accidents from her…yet.
She’s quite the athlete, too. She loves flying through the air to fetch a tossed ball.
Jay Jay, on the other hand, had an accident last night. I think it was some bad Mexican food, or something that didn’t agree with him. Very out of character for the J-Man…we gave him a pass on his mistake.
From here, we head up to Roseburg, Oregon, where we’ll stay at Seven Feathers. I believe it is an Indian casino/hotel/resort combo. Maybe we’ll get in a little gambling?
