We left Catalina on a sunny 68 degree day. We passed the Pet Cemetery as we went down Dillon. It has been so windy lately that you could hardly see the pass between the mountains on I 10 or all the whirling windmills for the sand in the air. We went up 395 to Kramer's Junction where we stopped for a coffee and stretch. We left cacti behind and drove through the rocky mountain area of Tehatchapi. We fueled in Bakersfield at $227.9 and headed across #46 through the Kern Valley. It is a delightful agricultural area. The fall rye was being plowed under, new rose bushes planted and the first crop of hay was already cut - imagine, on April 2. Some gusty winds for the last hour on I 5 until we pulled into Santa Nella and boondocked at McDonald's.
