Crescent City, California

Tsunami City

Crescent City is about as far north on Highway 101 as you can get before you hit Oregon. Mrs. Phred goes to dinner one night with Karen, who is a member of the Women's RV forum. Karen is a post natal nurse who spends a few months here and then goes there. I think that means that she cares for babies who can't go home immediately after being born.


Wine is cheaper in California and gasoline is cheaper in Oregon so we bounce back and forth.


Crescent City has lots of tsunamis. They had one on March 11 that came floating in from Japan and wrecked a bunch of boats and killed a stupid guy  who wanted to take pictures of the wave.


I think these are called "sea lions". They make an "Ork. ork" sound  that's hard to miss.


It's very easy to take more pictures in California than you have words to accompany.
We find ourselves in that situation now, looking at pretty flowers with no wisdom to share.


We'll be heading up to Oregon in the morning.


Maybe there will be fish....
