Today we drove as far as the Merced River Resort near Delhi, California. We left Old Orchard RV Park this morning after a stop at their dump site.
It was a long day of driving. California frustrates me so much! I would love it if the farmers down here would label their fields and their orchards. I know they grow all kinds of almonds and walnuts -- we passed the Blue Diamond plant. They also grow all kinds of olives and fruit. We saw trucks, one that we think was loaded with garlic bulbs and another with red beans. We saw harvested fields that I am sure were rice paddies...
The farmers in the Quincy area of Grant County have labeled their fields for years. They get lots of kudos from travelers and I know their Chamber of Commerce gets lots of thank you letters. (They also use their circle sprinklers to power Christmas decorations along the freeway!) I have seen fields around the Willamette Valley in Oregon labeled as well.
We are settled in for the night. Or maybe for two nights. We'll see in the morning.
