About Me

Florida, United States
June and I retired in June, 2004 and travelled for a year on our boat from Lake Michigan to Florida, then North on the East Coast through Canada, back to Southern Lake Michigan. It was the most amazing trip we have ever taken and one that will be tough to beat. We settled in Florida in the fall of 2005. On April 3rd, 2011, we departed in our Motorhome for the "BIG 2011 PLAN" We've now completed an 18,000 mile, 6 month drive from home in Florida to Northern California, North on the Pacific west coast to Seattle. From there to Alaska - with returning stops in Spokane, Washington - Oregon, Yellowstone, and other sites - then to Fort Wayne, Indiana to visit family, then back South to Florida and home. We have now traded in our motor home and purchased a new 5th wheel travel trailer and truck to continue travelling as long as life will allow. We will keep you informed as much as practical on our new site: www.Rainwatertravel.blogspot.com

Los Molinos Junior Class Car Wash


Los Molinos Junior Class Carwash Experts (and their advisor)


June and I diverted from our planned visit to Lassen Volcanic National Park due to road closures in the Park. (The roads had not yet been opened from the winter snows)  Instead we chose route 99 then route 5 North to Redding, California where we are as I post this note. 

Driving on route 99 we passed through the town of Los Molinos and saw a group of young folks with signs advertising a car wash.  Knowing the RV was pretty dirty I turned around and pulled into the parking lot where the car washing was underway.  We discovered the 10 or so students were Juniors from the 2012 class at Los Molinos Hign School doing a fund raiser wash.  These were 10 out of the total class of about 50 Juniors helping their school - what a great bunch of Juniors!  We also met their advisor who is one of the 9 teachers at the school - Bill Stevens - History Class.  We got a great wash and a delightful experience - What a nice diversion!

THANKS MOLINOS HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 2012!
