Anniversary at Cler Lake - Sept, 2nd thru the 4th, 2018

For our 19th wedding anniversary, we decided to venture out to Clearlake California. Eric had met a gentleman at Sacramento International Airport one time when he was waiting to pick up Carol from a trip with Cal-fire. The Man told had a Aurora RV Park T-shirt on and told Eric how he was helping to turn this park around. 

So, a couple months or so before their anniversary (which also usually falls on Labor day weekend) Eric made a reservation at the park. What was not happening at the time of the reservation was wildland fires that would cause the park and the surrounding town to be evacuated. We kept tabs on the status of the fire the couple of weeks before our trip and though the fire raged on, the town of Nice and the surrounding area was given the 'All clear' and we thought it only appropriate that we stay with our plan and help out the community by coming and spending some dollars their to help their economy. 

One of the first investments that we made while here in town was to replace the electrical plug on the motorhome. We had one contact that had gone bad. Eric was able to get it functional to get us through the first night, but come the next morning, we set out to find a replacement. Though we didn't find any in the town of Nice, we did find a RV supply and rental equipment place that did have a plug that we needed.

Though there were times that it got smoky here, we did enjoy our visit. We did some investigating of the area and could see where flame retardant had been dropped just below the ridge line that was to protect the town of Nice and other communities below.

As always, our wedding anniversary was memorable and we love each other as much as the day we got married.

Safe Travels everyone.
