South On The Big Sur

After a night in the parking lot of the Salinas Costco, we headed south on the Big Sur Highway, California 1.                                  

 

 

 

 

We stopped for lunch on a nice overlook.

 Marlene gets a little nervous on this road so she preoccupies herself by working on a quilt as we roll along.

About 40 miles south of Carmel, Ca, we came to Kirk Creek Camp Ground.  It was such a beautiful spot that we decided to stop and spend a couple of days.

A trail from the campground led down to a secluded cove.  

Another trail led up the side of the mountain above the campground and we used this one for getting our daily aerobic walk, 30 minutes uphill and 20 minutes back down.

    Back at the motor home, it was time for coffee.  On this trip we have brought along our new entertainment center.    This machine grinds the fresh roast beans, injects hot water and steam and creates a perfect cup of dark, strong coffee.  We are so spoiled.             After two sunsets, we moved on and today we stopped to see the elephant seals and Hearst Castle.
