After yesterday’s bust we reconnoitered and decided to do a deliberately long day today. Out of Oregon and into the California Redwoods.  A stop at the post office and general store in O’Brien

and another one at The Redwoods Visitors Center. 

A pause along the coast,

and another to take the measure of some giants 

After a set up on Site R-A at Redwoods Coast Cabins & RV Resort. Sound fancy? It’s no fancier than when it was a KOA when we stayed here in 2014. We enjoyed some Lost Coast brews and a bit of dinner before heading out for desserts at Cafe Mokka and a soak in the Finnish hot tubs behind the coffeehouse. 

After a thoroughly relaxing hour there we walked two blocks through Arcata streets lit by the almost full moon to the retired railroad crossing gate where Lou had the opportunity to locate one of our all time favorite geocaches!

Slow Journey Home

Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.

It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
