Sundial Bridge

We drove north about 30 miles to Redding today and explored the Turtle Bay Park.  The Sundial Bridge provides pedestrian access to the north and south areas of Turtle Bay Exploration Park, a complex containing environmental, art and history museums and the McConnell Arboretum and Gardens, and it forms the gateway to the ten-mile-long Sacramento River Trail. The bridge has a  glass panel floor. The gardens inside the park are beautiful. I could spend all day walking through gardens like this. We were impressed with the park and all the activities at hand  such as the museum,cycle paths and access to the river along a trail.

We stopped for lunch at the Win Casino ......where we didn't.  We agreed this was one of the tightest casinos we've been in all Summer.    :(

Back to the RV park for a dip in the pool. It is in the mid 80's with a slight breeze. We have been the only ones using the pool that I can tell. They keep it a tad bit chilly but it is refreshing once you get used to it.

We'll leave here Thursday morning and head to Reno. We'll be staying in an RV park just outside of Reno (Minden NV) but Monday and Tuesday we have a room at the El Dorado.
