MONO LAKE TO LONE PINE, CA

Friday, 5-7-10

We have mixed feelings about going home. We are fed up with the weather, but it is now warmer and we feel like we are just now getting into the groove of Vanagon camping. We want to keep heading into the sunset.


Instead, we head south on 395 and stop along the way at “Morning Light Gallery” in Bishop. This is Galen Rowel’s gallery and we always like to stop and look at his photos. He and his wife were killed many years ago in the plane she was piloting but his family has continued to promote his photography. It is a beautiful gallery and all the photographs look marvelous under the special lighting. We are envious of his talent.


Tonight we camp in Lone Pine at the “Boulder Creek RV Resort”, one of the nicest on the trip. The only thing that spoils it is the size – too big and too many huge RVs. But they have a wonderful pool, Jacuzzi, laundry and showers. We set up camp as all the other RVers sit and watch Fred and me maneuver our VW into the space so that it is “just right” for setting up the awning. We try our best not to snap at each other since we seem to be the main entertainment at the moment.


We have picked up a T-bone steak to grill and a wonderful pepper-coated salami log. Both taste fabulous. Hmmm, I wonder why I’m gaining weight on this trip…


Do you see Fred?
