Marty's Travels

My house has wheels

Crescent City, CA

I’ve only driven through Crescent City when escaping to Oregon from California. This time I stopped and will check things out. So far, I’m impressed.

I was laughing driving up here from Eureka: 101 is down to 1 lane at about 5 spots in less than 100 miles. Watching the effort of the crews to keep this road out of the ocean, when it obviously wants to go there, is absurdly funny to me.

Three years ago I drove this route. Today I stopped at the flagger for one of the slides in exactly the same place I stopped and turned off my engine three years ago. That was particularly funny.

So I’m in a city-owned RV park directly on the bay with a view of the wind and waves, and it is quite nice. Remember that this is off-season, so 101 has no where near the traffic it sees in the summer. Some places are still closed for the season.

The weather forecast is on my side for a while.
