A winter storm hit here at Faria County Beach in Ventura, California, last night. It rained all night. The waves this morning are brown with stirred up muck. High tide is less than an hour away. The waves may wash over the rocks then. Here’s some pictures from our dinette window last night before the storm and this morning so you can see the difference the storm made.
The window by my bed leaked. We didn’t know that until making up the bed this morning when we learned the sheet was wet. We’ll need to caulk that window when it dries out.
We got our generator fixed this morning. It was a broken valve spring that was preventing compression–or something like that. It was covered under warranty so we didn’t have to pay that $111/hour shop labor charge for the two hours it took them to fix it. Whew!
I got my new California State Parks discount pass. It cost $3.50 which we will more than get back the first time we use it. Nice.
We decide we liked In N Out Burger enough to go there again today. We drove right to it. We have now been in the Ventura/Oxnard area long enough to know our way around. It must be time to move on. So at 2:22 p.m. we headed out of town.
We drove as far south as Malibu where we returned to the Malibu Beach RV Park we stopped at when we finished our Route 66 journey. We knew we could do laundry there. And boy did the laundry need doing! It makes me nervous to run out of clean underwear. We did ask them to give us a site long enough for us to park without being up against the fence this time, though. Again we paid for a mountain view spot but I can see the ocean from my side of the dinette. They don’t seem to consider where your primary windows look when determining if the site is ocean view or mountain view; they just look at which way your windshield points. I like that.
