Fun in the Stanislaus
Today I rode my bike ½ mile NE on Hwy 4 and then turned right on Boards Crossing Rd. It ended up going over a rise and then 6 miles and 1,000 ft down to the Stanislaus River. I thought it was a spectacular spot, so I rode back to camp and suggested we all go down there. And we did!
It was a great afternoon. We brought lunch and then went down by the river. I played lifeguard and ferried folks around the river, which was just fast enough to be interesting. It was cold and after awhile I was really shivering. Laying out on the hot rocks took care of that. What a great spot. Playing in the sun by a fast river is my idea of a great time.
There was a campground across the river – I’ll have to look up what it was – it would be a great place to camp sometime.
Everybody loved this place (although Patty just said it’s dusty and the campsites are too close together).
Tonight we mostly packed up and tomorrow morning we’re off on our northwest adventure.
