North to Red Bluff, CA

Today we're on the road again, heading north on I-5 from Sacramento towards Redding, where we'll turn east and visit McArthur Burney Falls State Park. Tonight we're listening to the freeway noise from our pull-through RV space at the Red Bluff Elks Lodge, but tomorrow we expect to have some peace and quiet.

On the way north we traveled through the Sacramento Valley, crossing the Sacramento River at least three times along the way. As we neared Red Bluff, we began to see snow capped mountains to the northeast, the highest of which is Lassen Peak, which has an average annual snowfall of 660 inches.

We stopped to do some shopping in West Sacramento, so we're stocked up for a few days. We had ham and swiss sandwiches for lunch, with banana and apple yogurt, at a very nice and very busy rest area.
