Arrived in California!!!! Left Las Vegas and headed across desert to Bakersfield, CA. Originally we were going toward Lake Tahoe area, but weather is still cold and snow, so we came to Bakersfield where it is warmer. We stayed at Bakersfield RV Resort. Amenities include a restaurant on premises - very good!!! They had a St. Patrick's Day dinner which Skip enjoyed. He loves corned beef and cabbage. I had their Shepherd's Pie which was excellent. Went to one of the local farmer's markets.

Now in Paso Robles, CA. Wine Country!! There are at least 200 vineyards in this part of California. We are staying at Wine Country RV Resort. We are near San Simeon (Hearst Castle which we will be going to). Approx 250 miles or so south of San Francisco. Somehow we will make our way through this "rough terroir" of vineyards!!!! We went to Big Bubba's Barbecue for dinner - ate dinner in jail.

Yesterday, we went to Tobin James Vineyard and to White Horse Vineyard. So many vineyards and so much wine to drink each day!!!
That was our "tough" day yesterday!!!!!
