Re: 2500 mile family vaca towing a trailer in a 50 Suburban...why not?

Tomb23 you are right, great place and we are all around to help when needed.
Update:
The 250 kicks ass! Was planning several routes around the Grapevine but after tearing up th Syskous in Oregon, we thought a B line to Disneyland was in order.

First day we stopped in Redding and met up with Glen aka G&R's57GMC for a shop tour and some double double animal style burgers at my faVorite place on Earth, In &Out burger. I think its Glens favorite place too as everyone who worked there said hi to him! I snapped a pic of his tricked out SSR next to the family truckster. We then hauled the mail down to At****er to hang out with Rene and Renata aka C/10 KING. WOW is all I can say. He had surfer Bob and Jim aka Hemi Jim over with a couple of their trucks, brought their wives a nd we all shared a great meal at the local pizza joints where we were treated like roalty. Must be nice being the k
King lol! Stayed at Renes place and boogied out at 5am hoping to land in LA after the morning rush hour. Still sat in traffic and got to the RV resort at noon. We were going to do one of the parks, but the cool shade system over the trailer for a nice nap and being directly across from the pool was making our "wanting to stand in line to ride a ride" feelings quickly deminish. A few of the others had already left this morning and took their cars from camp.
This first pic was really cool before the phone delay on the camera. You can barely see MT Shasta "floating" in the clouds above the trees. Just the upper glacier was visible in the sun and was surrounded by clouds....like Heaven

Home for a few days. Now that I'm here, I'm not sure if this isn't the happiest place on earth and that Mickey's place is over crowded! May just surf the net, take some naps, go for a swim and a hot soak, fill the resort with the smell of bacon and fire coffee( brought the LP fire pit...buuuyha) and just enjoy this spot.
