San Berdu

San Bernardino 2007

I made it to Williams just as planed. I noticed that the new truck tires looked a little saggy when I hooked up the trailer so I stopped by the tire store on my way out of town. Glad that I did they had 55 lbs and should be 70!

The hills are now behind me at least until I get to the Grape Vine. Tomorrow will be the dull part of I-5 then the traffic of LA on Wednesday, yea!

Well, another 300 miles of smashing bugs on the windshield and I found Lost Hills. I'm set up for the night and only have about 4 hours to go.

One more day.

I did the last leg of my trip to San Berdu today. I started in Lost Hills got up and flipped on the TV to hear about Santa Ana Winds which woke me right up. The weather man said that it wouldn't be that bad, gusts to 50 mph below the passes and would be tapering off between 8:00 and 10:00. I went into town and filled up with diesel. The pump stopped at $75 and the truck wasn't full so I had to run the credit card through a second time.

Hook up the trailer and found an IHOP about 30 miles down the road for breakfast. I hit the bottom of the Grapevine about 10:30 and made it to the top. It was breezy around Gorman but not real bad. I slowed down to about 50 and no problems. I should have known that you can always depend on Fontana! I kept slowing down and found myself doing 40 on the freeway! I got off and crept across Baseline the rest of the way. Once in San Berdu the wind stopped and I checked in to the campground. They even gave me the same spot I had before.

During the check in they ran the deposit through the credit card and then the first month and three days. This was just too much for MasterCard. Two fuel charges, breakfast and two charges for the campground, REJECT. The manager had to leave for his other job and said go ahead and park and we will straighten this out later. I set up the trailer for a long term stay and finally got around to the computer. There is a message from MasterCard, "Call Us Now". I did and all is well. They promised to let the other charge go through.

I was wondering what to have for dinner then opened the Fed Ex package that had arrived here for me today. That takes care of dinner, cheese crackers sausage. Thanks Roberta.

Bye the way Tisha they have thermometers that go past 60 here! A pleasant 75 degrees. Guess I can put away the long sleeve shirts.
