Getting Underway.

 

We left Santa Rosa at 8:15 and drove east on Highway 12.

When we came to Madrone Road we turned right, followed Madrone Road for about a mile to where it comes to its end at Arnold Drive. At Arnold Drive we turned left and drove on Arnold to to the intersection of Arnold and Leveroni Rd. Here we turned left and followed Leveroni Rd to where it crosses Hwy12 and becomes Old Napa Road. We crossed the highway and continued on old Napa Road to where it tee’s at the Storneto Dairy with highway 12.

We turned east on 12 and continued on until we got on I-80 heading east. We were on 80 only for 2 minutes when we turned onto highway 12 east and followed it to interstate 5 at Lodi. Once on I-5 we drove south to Lost Hills, about 300 miles from home. Here we stopped for gas. From there it is only about 43 miles to Bakersfield. Twenty miles to the Highway 58 turnoff and another 23 to Bakersfield. 

We can see dark clouds in the east. It looks like its is raining in Tehachapi.

The whole drive was uneventful and by 4:15 we were parked and hooked up at the River Run RV park.
