Pacifica, CA.

     I could spit over the cliffs and hit the ocean...............yes the only thing better in Bev's eyes would be to have the coach pulled up to the edge and see that view out the front window.  San Francisco RV resort's front row accommodates 26 foot and under along the front row so we're back one in a pull through but that doesn't detract from the fact that we're just steps from the ocean view Bev has always wanted.  We are only spending three days here in the Bay area but enjoying every minute of it as usual when we visit San Francisco!  
     Reality stuck it's little head in yesterday morning as we sat on a bench just after dawn watching the pelicans and seagulls working for their breakfast in the early morning mist and fog.  As we sat there Bev said "you realize that we'll be home in a week from today" and we both looked at each other and wondered where the last 3 months had gone.  We neither one are ready to go home as far as the traveling goes, but we both can't wait to get home to the kids and grand kids, we really miss them a lot!  
     This our last day in the Bay area we plan on going in to town, doing tourist thing once again and visit one our favorite places, the Wharf, yes Fisherman's Wharf and some fresh sea food.  How does clam chowder and some good old San Francisco sour dough bread sound?     We might even head to the corner of Green and Columbus to this little Italian joint I seen on the travel channel for this sea food dish that sounded so good.  The dish had clams, mussels, shrimp, fish and calamari all steamed and combined in this sort of tomato based sauce.  Not sure of the name of the place but remember it was on this corner and shouldn't be too hard to find.
     Tomorrow morning we'll hookup for the the drive to Las Vegas where we'll spend out last few days of this our journey of 2015.  Normally when in Vegas we stay at one of the resorts in comp'd rooms at the Luxor or a Harrah's property, but this time we'll be staying in an RV resort near our good friend Fred Keene.  Fred's been working on the road for some time and we've missed seeing him over the last year or so, and look forward to camping near him at the Oasis Las Vegas Resort.  Going from this 50 - 60 degree weather on coast to the 100's of the desert will be a stark reality that home is right around the corner.  One thing will be welcomed by me at least, and that will be the dry air..........I look forward to being able to get "unstuffed" and breath more freely in the dry conditions of home.
     One or two more blogs for this trip I would imagine, one from Las Vegas (I'll try) and then a wrap-up upon our return home on September 1st.  Don't be surprised if this coach doesn't take a couple of little trips this winter!
