Russian River and San Benito Thousand Trails

After leaving Klamath River RV Park we headed to the Russian River Thousand Trails in Cloverdale, Ca.

Russian River
We were going to stay for 6 nights at Russian River. Patty's Sister Suzie drove in from Middletown to visit us. She was only going to stay for the day, but after not seeing us for such a long time decided to spend the night with us. It was great to see her and wonderful to see the sisters get goofy together!

The day after Suzie left we went to Bodega Bay which was made famous from the Alfred Hitchcock film "The Birds". It was an interesting place to visit, and some of the buildings still look the same.

Bodega Bay
We were not impressed with the campground and because there were no sewer hookups we decided to leave early after just 4 nights, We initially intended to go the Morgan Hill Thousand Trails, but it also did not have Sewer Hookups. It is also a fairly small park, and since Labor Day would have fallen during our stay we realized it would have been JAMMED tight! Instead we decided to go to San Benito Thousand Trails near Hollister and stay a whole week. We have been there before and know the area.

San Benito Thousand Trails
This is a huge park and although it was a holiday it was still only half filled. We were fortunate to get a corner spot with 50 amp power. Because of the drought in California there is very little grass here! We had a good time and this was a good layover spot with pool until we could get to Santa Barbara's Rancho Oso which is our next stop!

That's it for now,

God Bless you,
Brian and Patty
