Oct. 15, 16 Friday and Saturday

Friday we drove from Garberville along the 101 to Highway 20 out to the coast.  We are now in Caspar Beach RV Park, Point Cabrillo coastal road just outside Mendocino, CA.  Highway 20 had a lot of twists, turns and hills.  So we had to take off the car and I followed behind the motorhome.  We blew a gasket and lost the grease once more, but were able to do the repairs at the Park.  http://www.casparbeachrvpark.com/  It’s not quite a pretty as the pictures on their website.

Saturday started out overcast and we only had a bit of sun, but we drove north on Highway 1 up to Rockport, back through Westport, MacKerricher State Park seal sighting there, then back through Fort Bragg and south to Albion junction of Highway 128.  On the return trip we stopped at the Point Cabrillo Light Station and saw more seals.  They are lazy critters! This Highway #1 is a notoriously difficult road to travel, loaded with switch back turns and steep hills, we were happy to be in the car.  The Hwy #1 south to the 128 is also full of wild twists and turns, so we will not be towing the car till we get back to Highway 101.
We are here till Monday morning when we will travel to San Francisco!
