My house has wheels

Eureka

I made it to Eureka, and will be here a week at least.

It took a long time from Fort Bragg on Highway 1. I cannot recommend anyone pulling a trailer take this road unless you need to check this route off your life list. There are a lot of 15 mph hairpins, I don’t think I got over 40 mph, and only the occasional turnout going northbound. Luckily there was very little traffic.

The Mendocino coastline is beautiful, though . Lots of rocks and haystacks with crashing flying surf. There’s a great RV camping spot that is almost above the high high tide line, but I doubt I’ll drive this route again pulling anything.

Who in their right mind would go to the extreme effort to build this road in the first place???
