The overnight storm changed from showers to snow about 3 this morning and before too long we had more than 3 inches on the ground, and on Nessie, and on James. We waited until about 10 to see if the storm would quit, but it didn't seem inclined to do so, so we decided to pack up.
Well, then, there it goes again....
The satellite antenna wouldn't stow properly and the slides wouldn't come in due to the layer of snow on everything. After an hour or so, we were able to get the major snow accumulations cleared and were ready to go.
A few hours later, we saw this sign:
315 miles and 6 hours after we left Williams, we found ourselves at the Desert Springs RV Park on the Daggett-Yermo Rd some 8 miles east of Barstow, California. The park is a small, gravel rv park with a few desert trees and bushes scattered about. There is a bar and grill adjacent to the office, so we went with the neighbors to check out the dinner menu. Donna and I had a hot Pastrami sandwich with all the fixin's, and Chuck and Sandy went for the fish and chips and hamburger. We all agreed that the food was excellent, and reasonable, too.
So now it's 615 down, and a bit over 400 to go....Home on Saturday. And the "extremes" reference? It was 34 deg in Williams when we left this morning, and 74 in Barstow when we arrived. Too different worlds, ya betcha.
