Our new bus! 1979 VW Riviera Penthouse

[Clementine79]

Yes its great there, from the overhead it appears sites are about 500-1000ft or more apart. We normally camp closer to the water but the prime spots were already snatched up since the weather has been so warm recently. Our spot was the one in yellow here didnt see many people except fishers in and out a few times during the day.

Set up the bus at the park for our daughter’s birthday! Handy having the fridge to keep everything cool.

Symphony was playing a show up at the park, there is a large pond near the venue that is really neat.

Nice! There are so many events happening in many of our local communities as summer ramps up. Good to see you getting out in the Bus and enjoying them.

Head north on Sandlake Rd. and you can see lots of VW powered toys running the sand dunes at the OHV Park.

Made it back home,

10 nights camped in the bus

KOA campground Mt Shasta was a nice spot, Siskiyou Lake was also beautiful

Harts Camp in Pacific City rabbits everywhere, campground was very crowded and close together sites. Webb County and Woods Camp was the same.

Mystic Forest Campground in Klamath had the best sites tucked in the trees, its a shame they do not have pictures on their website. The RV area is wide open and very outdated but the tent sites in the tree and secluded and very beautiful.

Fourth of July at Pacific City was one of the coolest experiences of the trip
