Ludlow, California 🠊 Williams, California
We woke up the following morning and got on the road towards Williams, California. Again, it was a beautiful day and we were able to see areas we saw when we moved from Arkansas to Oregon back in 2004. It was nice to see a lot of the area again, and see things that most people take for granted, like California poppies growing along the median.
We didn't stop anywhere and tried to make good time getting to Williams, and the moon was full and glowing the whole way once the sun went down.
We made it to Williams around 9:00 p.m. Jeff said he was going to go ahead of call it a night from driving. This area of California is pretty bare with sights, but the sunsets were amazing! I have always said that nothing beats a west coast sunset.
Williams, California 🠊 Homebase
We woke up in Williams around 8:00 a.m. We ate breakfast and cleaned up the bus. We also got all the animals situated for the ride home. We planned on driving straight through from Williams, California, to Oregon without stopping.
As we crested the hill near Mount Shasta we got a great view of the snow-covered mountain. It was such a beautiful day that we saw the shadows in the snow along the mountain's sides.
We also got a great view of Black Butte along the highway towards the base of Mount Shasta.
We reached the summit of the Siskiyou mountain range and as we crested the top there it was; "Welcome to Oregon" sign greeted us. We were glad to be back in Oregon after such a long trip, but we were sad to end our time on the bus already. We all decided that living on the bus for long periods of time is definitely doable.
And before we knew it, we were getting off of Interstate 5 headed towards home base. It was a great trip and one we will be taking again soon. We can say now that we saw the solar eclipse twice. Once in Oregon in 2017 and then again in Arkansas in 2024. AND, we traveled to see the 2024 eclipse in a converted school bus. What a wonderful chapter to add to our book of life!
