2013 Apr 24-25 - Las Vegas to Concord

Wednesday - Orange Grove RV
9:30am - Left Oasis RV in Las Vegas. With the generator still not working we anticipated a warm drive. The drive was hot but bearable.

2:30pm - Arrived at Orange Grove RV just east of Bakersfield. I love this park which is built in an orange grove with orange trees between each site. On check in they give a large sack of oranges. The aroma in the park is pleasant, relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable.

Thursday - Concord
8:30am - Today we are driving up through the central California Valley on Interstate 5 and this route is normally is hot. Hoping that we're early enough in the year to beat the heat.
Twenty miles down the road we stopped for fuel at the Barstow Flying J truck stop and used the RV pumps. Horizon took 47 gallons at 3.87 for a total of 181.78. The rest of the trip, while long and warm, didn't get excessively hot.

2:30pm - arrived at our home in Concord and pulled into the RV pad next to the house, connecting to 50amps, water, and sewer.
