Welcome to our journey

This is a record of our road trip adventure as we take our first forage into the states with the truck camper and novice camper Daisy Doodle. The plan is to leave tomorrow, the 26th, and spend the first night with good friends inPort Stanley then accross the border at Detroit the next day. From there to the south! Far enough Rob says to remove the long underwear and put on the sandals! After we get a couple of days of relaxation it will be making our leasurely way to California
and up the west coast to Vancouver Island for the middle of May for the anticipated birth of a new granddaughter!

April 28/Highway 1

Said good-bye to the peacocks and goats ready to see the Pacific Ocean. It started with great promise. Saw what we thought would be the first picturesque ocean village complete with the seaside restaurant. Little did we know that would be  our last! It is a very scenic drive with lots of coastal cliffs and great twists and turns on the 2 lane road. We did have to go through some road work where they were fixing the road. Not sure if that was were it had gone into the ocean or were making sure it doesn't. The winds don't want to leave us! Very gusty! There are small villages that we went through but it looks like fine dining and wine tasting not to mention the inns with spas seem to be only places to eat. Not a fish and chip stand in view! It isn't what we thought it was going to be.
We have camped out at a small, crowded campground on a little bay called Caspar Cove.
