After leaving the California Coast we headed East to Sequoia National Park. The park suffered last year from the KNP Complex Fire and many areas were closed for months. The firefighters actually wrapped General Sherman and many other sequoias with aluminum fire resistant blankets to protect them from the fires. As many as 2,300 giant sequoias burned to death or are expected to die as a result from the fire. This fire was caused by a severe lightning storm. Unfortunately many roads were closed from the fire or from a recent snow storm. There was still some snow and there…

After Morro Rock and the wineries of Paso Robles, we headed up the coast to explore Big Sur, Monterey and Pinnacles National Park. We stayed at Yanks RV Resort in Greenfield, CA. We spent one whole day on the coast in Big Sur and the rugged oceanfront. One of our stops was at Pfeiffer Beach and the iconic “Keyhole Arch” where we were mesmerized by the beauty!We also had a wonderful night of luxury at the Seven Gables Inn….the views from our room were amazing! Near the inn, the scenic 17 Mile Road that hugs the coast through Pebble Beach…

We had a blast…

After San Diego we headed North to Malibu Beach. We read about an RV park that overlooked the Pacific and made reservations months ago. Our site was right on a bluff that had sweeping views of the ocean…we could hear the pounding surf all day and night! Our first adventure was the Ciscos Whale Watch…we left from Oxnard…we had the potential to see humpback whales and migrating gray whales…we saw two water spouts far in the distance but did not see the actual whales. 🙁 I am not going to give away the spectacular gift we saw on our cruise…you…
