Day 14 - Oregon (Redding to Sacramento)

When we woke up we start our truck and went to Safeway to get some gas. After gas we head east then north then west to arrive at Target in Dana. We ate in McDonald outdoor because of the cat was not allowed indoor. We then drove to the nearby Shasta Mall and saw a lot of classic car.

After that we head for highway 5 to Sacramento. We saw a Sonic Burger and Walmart few minute later next to Interstate 5 in Anderson. We stop for a while trying to get some Sonic food. But Mel did not like the way of ordering thru a mic while standing outside the store. We had the Air-cond on in the parking lot. It shut down for a while for some unknown reason after I used the water pump a bit. Mel also walk that Walmart a bit.

I told Tom that I wanted to visit Olivia. I wanted to take a shower, so we stop by one of the rest area (2 miles before city of Corning) which they have good location of water outlet on right hand side of the parking to fill up water. We all took a nice hot shower. One mile later TA gas station was closed by, few miles down was Rolling Casino we can stayed for the night. Three or four miles before Willow, there was a rest area which had a dump. At the last rest area, we decided to cook for dinner which was only 10-14 miles from Sacramento. I called Olivia again to tell her we would not be able to see her tonight caused it was already very late, we would see her tomorrow morning. By the time we got to her house we saw two trucks were parked next to her house so Tom decides to get some gas first. We stopped by the gas station next to the Bel Air parking lot for gas. Then Tom drove to Olivia house; it was already 12:40 a.m. Both trucks were already gone, so we were able to park our trailer in front of her house. Lawrence and I were sleepy and both went to bed early. Tom found a free wi-fi internet, he stayed up until 2:00 a.m. in the morning.
