October- Trip to California

Our annual Pismo beach trip. Scott does Motocross races and our families favorite to go to is the one in Pismo. We drive the motorhome right down on the beach. It is as dangerous as it sounds. You drive right on the sand in this 36 foot vehicle that isn't really made to do off roadin.
We pulled in at 11pm and were parked by about 2 am. You have to time it with the tide so you don't wake up in the morning to find your RV a drift out in the ocean.
Despite moving it further in, upon our return from Hearst Castle we found ourselves in the not so BLue Lagoon! Our stuff was swimming and our RV was about 12-18 inches under water. Luckily, it dried out and we actually pulled out 2 days later with no problems.
It was a great trip.
Scott actually placed 2nd even with a pretty big crash.
Of course we headed in on Thursday night to San Luis and the Farmer's Market. There is no Farmer's Market I have ever seen like this and it holds many wonderful memories from being a college student there. I graduated from Cal Poly in 1992, which seems like too many years ago.
They shut down the main street downtown and venders sell food, fruits and vegies, treats, there is entertainment and this night they had the Big Pumpkin contest.


California Adventure
On our way home to Utah we went through Southern Cal. Just in time for the big fires. Thank goodness we weren't near them but we were right in the middle of the horrible winds that were egging them on but that and our survival is another story.
We spent a day at California Adventure. SInce we did DisneyLand last year thought we would try something new. Personally, I still prefer Disney Land, it's a classic.
