Just talk to Ron and Pat in Cloverdale, BC.It seem we ran away from home just on time, they have minus 15c and snow on the ground, don't mean to brag but it was 23c here this afternoon in Bakersfield ca, we should be happy that all we had to put up with today was a miner fix on the Fiesta left flasher and torrential rain for about 150 miles....also got to see the devastating drought in southern California there is nothing but dust, it is tragic.
Tomorrow we will be at or near Quartz-site Arizona and be officially Snow Birds.

We stayed in Medford last night and look what we first saw this morning ,We were in aw at the site of this  georgous sun rise We were duped to thing that it would last,10 minutes later the heavy rain started and lasted for most of the day but for a breef moment it was pure joy.Before departing we fiddle around a bit with the whippers and finally  we got on the way.
We made it to Happy Time RV Park in Yolo by mid afternoon, great park all the services for $20.00 what a deal! we stayed here 2 years ago and certainly do  it again in the future.
Tomorrow we of to Bakersfield, we have yet to find a place to stay.....

So we had an other exiting day traveling from Oregon City to Medford Oregon, first was the discovery that someone had syphoned a few gallon of gas while we were sleeping and dispose of our gas cap, got to get a new one tomorrow (one that can be looked) as well as a new set of wipers one of them fell up just as we stop at Pilot, in Grants Pass and during the 300 or so miles we cover today we were in torrential rain, never seen anything like it, be-leave it or not Oregon is greener than BC.....Tomorrow will surely bring more excitement as we head to California....... Earth  quake maybe!

This morning at 9AM sharp we hit the road on the first leg of our trip to Arizona to earn our wings to become once completed officially Snow-Bird.

The Fiesta perform as well as expected I drove the first 3 hours in the morning and after a short break for lunch Frederick drove the rest of the way trough verry heavy traffic due in part to  the American Thanks Giving Holiday tomorrow, it was a hair raising experience especially for us,we have groan acostume to the traffic at home in Hope BC, anyway after a few twist and tun because we had forgotten how to get  to Oregon City we made it.This RV-park is a city park, situated on the south side of the City and has all the facilities for a modest $20.00 a day a real gem, we plan on stoping here again when we return home in march.

Very late but.....

Well were just about ready to go in less than 48 hours, will be on our way, the Fiesta has been prep. and tune, most of our cargo  is loaded "we are good to go". Also hour house has been secure and thanks to Cathy for helping us .We have maps,GPS, trip planner from BCAA health insurance and the concern and apprehension that come with it all. Frederick, my long time  companion and dearest friend has been must helpful.We have to make a quick stop to Bellingham WA.for a few life essential.
