James Dean by John Cerney

We are in James Dean country

We had a restful sleep in the WalMart parking lot.  The foil insulation over the windows really made a difference shutting out the light – why didn’t we think of that before?  The trip was a short one – only about 3 hours and no significant issues.  The cruise control is still not working and we made a pit stop at a rest area on highway 101 and the starter wouldn’t function again.  I have been assuming that the problem was a grounding one but now I am thinking the starter itself may be the culprit.  Gene Fisher will be bringing a newly rebuilt starter to the rally and I think I may put it in and try it.

The San Lorenzo Regional Park – the site of our GMCWS rally – is a beautiful place.  We had been here before years ago when we lived in the area but never to the camp ground.  It is probably the nicest campground we have ever been in.  Here is a slide show of the park and some early arrivals.
