The trip to Klamath Falls was a long one.  Not only did we arrive well after dark, it had started raining during the last couple of hours of driving.  We weren’t in the desert anymore.  

We woke up to more rain, but because you never know what you’re going to get and since this was our last stop on our trip, we decided to head out to places we had scouted out on our first leg of the trip.  

The next day started early for us.  After brewing a pot of coffee and checking out of the hotel, we headed out to the Alabama Hills.  Unfortunately, finding our tree was much harder in the dark than I expected. 

Our short stay at Kings Canyon was over and we needed to move on.  Ann and I had decided to take the long way home, continuing with the idea that much of the trip was for scouting purposes, so our plan was to head south

The break for lunch was worth it.  Not only did Ann and I get a chance to dry off, warm up and get some fuel in our bodies, the weather decided to cooperate and stop raining.  Given that there were still plenty of clouds in the air, we decided to play it safe and go to the near-by General Grant Grove in the event that the weather turned yet again. 

Our trip to Sportsmobile West only lasted a few hours.  Jonathan took his time to show us how different ideas were implemented in other vehicles they were working on in the shop, and definitely answered all of our questions to make sure we would get the vehicle we want, but we had a good idea of our needs and wants, and quickly went through the list of options available to us.
