Joy and Phil discussed and researched the lifestyle. They worked together for nearly five years in preparation for their dream of full time RV living. Phil retired in June 2004; they moved into the perfect motorhome; held the last garage sale; sold the vehicles, boat and house; bought the Ford Ranger; crossed off what seemed like thousands of to-dos on the lists and at last, the day of departure arrived. Welcome to our weblog and let the adventure begin!
We took the side road to see the Tehachapi Loop in October. The sign does not mention the fact that a train will cross over itself here if it is at least 4400 feet long. The climb in that distance is about 80 feet.

ReplyDeleteWould you say this loop can be done from rte 58 in a 37foot Class A DP and towing a HOnda?
How is the terrain and curves and road surface. How about turning around after the monuments?
Very interesting and informative posts, Keep up the good work.
Happy Trails in 2005.
