We drove from Cloverdale to Isleton today. Isleton is on an island in the delta (a group of islands between the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers). In the island area you drive on top of the levees. In the NW we call them dikes. There are little fingers of waterways everywhere you look. There is a lot of fishing done on the rivers and sloughs. Right now they are fishing for striped bass. They built the levees to keep the rivers from flooding the land and as a result the farms and businesses are below the levees (several hundred feet). It is a weird feeling pulling the Montana down a narrow two lane road on the levee and turning down hill into the RV park. We are at the Delta Shores Resort and Marina. It wasn't a bad park, but it wasn't the best. At least it is fairly quiet and has full hook ups.
The one thing we are noticing is that there are a lot flowers in bloom as we go further south. Lots of birds around here along with water fowl. We even have seen a Magnolia in bloom with dinner plate size blossoms. Usually you see those in the southeast.
We called Denna and Tom (Denna is Myrna's cousin) to let them know we were here and they are coming over tomorrow for a visit.
