Going to be busy for the next two weeks. The company talked me into some overtime, but sweetened the deal by letting me do our Lake Tahoe runs two weeks in a row. So, at least I get to come home for a few days in between. That beats the heck outta 12 days on the road.

Have a happy Friday!
What happens on your Lake Tahoe runs? Where do you stop?
Maybe I could meet you for a coffee.... PM any details.

I would try it! I was going to go there once with my brother in law but we couldn't get there and make the next stop in time so we never made it.

Hey Bill,

How is Casa Grande? One of the schools there is real interested in Vici. I see there are a couple of what appear to be nice RV Parks on the west side of I-10. One is on Pinal Ave the other is on E Florence. One is Fiesta Grande RV the other is Leisure Valley. Any info or other nice RV parks you know of.
Anyone can chime in if they have any info.
Thanks,
Craig

I would prefer to do our Tahoe runs in the summer, but right now I'll take it since it's a shorter work week than flying the basketball teams. Usually we pickup from a handful of cities in CA on Friday, shuttling everyone into the Minden / Tahoe airport. Sunday is when we take them home, with the occasional run on Monday.

This coming weekend, we pickup in Ontario, Bakersfield, and Monterey. We drop off the first two on Sunday, and Monterey on Monday. The next weekend, I pickup in San Fran, Napa, Sonoma, Santa Ana, and San Diego on Friday, and return them all on Monday. That will be two busy days, especially if we have weather.
