LODI, BAKERSFIELD

When we stayed here before we were in a hurry, we were looking forward to exploring this area a little more, we would be here two days.

The next day we drove to downtown Lodi.

It's a quaint little town.

It has a really cute Post Office!

It was closed!!

I am missing my light weight jacket and realized I must have left it in Redding when we went shopping. We stopped at Penney's and bought me a new one. Then, had a wonderful meal at a quaint Mexican restaurant. On the way home we stopped at a Farmer's Market we had visited when we were here before. They were having a pumpkin festival!

We got our "Pumpkin Fix".

This is wine country!

The next day we left for Bakersfield, we would be there four days, we've never stayed there, just driven through.

You could tell on the drive in there is an ongoing  drought here!

I thought this sign said it all! It says," NO WATER VALLEY FARMS NO JOBS

Bakersfield RV Resort was very nice!

We had a nice RV sport with grass!

 We took Maggie and Marlee down to the blowups to get a Halloween picture.

They were really happy about it!

We enjoyed the hot tub at the Park every night.

We found a small grooming shop that shortened M and M's nails, they were thrilled about that too! 

One afternoon we went to the movie, The Accountant.

 Another afternoon we drove out to California Fruit and Nut Company.

We bought dried pineapple and raisins and the lady gave Darrell some oranges. It was all delicious.

We drove by this RV park on the way to the fruit and nut company.

We have been told about this RV park by a lot of RVers. This is an  orange grove with RV sites and you can pick all the oranges you want!!
Our vacation was almost over...only two more stops and we would be in Mesa for the winter. The next day we drove to Barstow/Calico KOA in Yermo. I was surprised at what a nice RV Park it is.

 

We only stayed one night.

 We are headed to Lake Havasu City to a Passport America Park for two nights.
