Sacramento

We picked up WILDCAT at the Amtrak train station in Sacramento and holed up in an RV park.

We rarely stay in RV parks, much preferring the wilderness. In towns, we often prefer a simple Costco or Walmart parking lot to an RV park. We have no need for RV hookups, with our self-contained tanks and ample solar electricity. But sometimes we are forced into the cramped, paved places called RV campgrounds, especially in cities where overnight parking is not allowed at Walmart.

We pick up WILDCAT at midnight and need to buy some supplies in the morning for the hike. Parking at Costco and Walmart is not allowed. So here we are at an RV park in Sacramento. So be it. It will get us through the night just fine.

Tomorrow we will buy supplies in Sacramento and get to the trail head.  I can handle one day in town. Tomorrow we will be in the wilderness.
