Decluttering the Stuff for a Decluttered Life in Retirement

Summer 2018 Update #10 – AZ to CA

We left Sedona, AZ and made our way to Rock Creek Lake area in the Inyo National Forest in California, specifically staying at East Fork Campground.  This was about 700 miles from Sedona.

On the way (with a quick stop at home to get the boat), we stopped in Phoenix, AZ and purchased lunch to go at Jason’s Deli.  Another one of our favorites!  The nearest Jason’s to us in southern California is in Phoenix or Las Vegas.

We did 10 nights off the grid – no hookups and nearest cell reception was about 10 miles away.  It used to be about 20 miles, but the have added a tower, not that we ventured away often.

This is the view from our motorhome table.  I was eating breakfast and this was my view!  And the video doesn’t do the sound of rushing water, birds chirping, squirrels squirreling, chipmunks chipmunking any justice!  (what do you call the sounds the rodents make??  chirping??)  Thankfully, no bears in the campsite this year!

John went fishing just about every morning in the nearby lake, catching the lone fish in this video!  We read 4 novels between the 2 of us and completed 3 puzzles (our evening entertainment!)  We also took daily “hikes”.  It was so relaxing!

Here’s a short video of our camp site.  Enjoy!

    We have a Jason’s Deli about 15 minutes away from us 😊. I’ve only been there once though. It was delicious and I’ve wanted to go back but just haven’t had a chance. Your video makes me want to go on vacation!!! What a beautiful and relaxing campsite!!! It looks like it was wonderful!!

      Thanks! Jason’s Deli is one of our favorite places, not just because they are great at serving gluten free for John.

    Beautiful site! Looks so peaceful and relaxing.

    Jason’s Deli is one of our favorites too. We are finally getting one in the neighboring town sometime this summer. Can’t wait!

      You are so lucky!! The lone one in CA closed about a year ago after only being open a short time. So sad!
