NOV 2, MONDAY; One more
day in Mariposa
WHAT
A CHANGE!!! We woke up to pouring rain
and it lasted all day. We decided to
stay one more day as I didn’t feel like driving in this stuff, (we heard on the
news that there was an eight cars pile-up).
After a very lazy morning, we went to town and did laundry. I sent an e-mail to INDIAN WELLS RV PARK and
made reservations for Nov 5 to 19. After
laundry, we found the local bar and had lunch and a drink then came home. The rain finally let off around 3 pm but it
is a heavy overcast sky out there and the temperature dropped to the low 60’s
F.
NOV 3, TUESDAY; ONWARD to
SEQUOIA PARK
Woke
up to cloudy sky but no rain although it did rain on and off all night. We were on the road by 8:30 am and drove back
toward MERCED then 99 South to Visalia on HWY 198 where we stopped for a break
and McDonald coffees. We continued on up
to 1100 feet where we went through Three Rivers village and found our
campground at the North end. We paid for
two nights and settled in. We got here
at 1:30 pm so we went for a short walk around the campground looking for bears
as the owner told us they were around and apparently one likes to spent the
night in the tree behind our rig…very comforting!!! Our drive up was cloudy and we got some rain
on the way up but it was sunny when we set up.
We went for a drive to the village and check things out and visited a
couple other campground and saw two bears; a black and a brown one. They didn’t seem all that scare of us! Took a couple pictures then continues our
exploration. We went up to the Park and
found a bar/restaurant by the river, very quaint. We had a beer and wings then headed back down
to our little home. It rained again but
when we got down to our campground, the pavement was dry. A quiet evening at
home and looking forward to tomorrow.
