08/18/15 - On 8/17 I left the parking lot in Sacramento around 9:00am since I was not sure how long the drive was and I wanted lots of time to get hooked up and settled in.  I had a great drive until the last 10 miles into Groveland because I had to climb a mountain with the road narrow and very curvy. At times I would only go 15 to 20 miles an hour because I did want to make all the curves and then of course there were other RV's and campers going the opposite way.  It was intense but I finally made it.  I arrived at 11:45am.  It took quite a while for the office to find a spot because I wanted to be in the shade.  I was informed they had cable but was not the best so I also wanted to be sure and have enough of an opening for my satellite dish to find a satellite.  Maintenance decided that the one we finally agreed on was not big enough but we decided to go check and then decided it was big enough so they helped me back the RV in and then I started to set up.  It was 107 degrees and my hook ups were all in the sun so I soon decided that I would just hook up electric for now.  I then sat in the shade for awhile and then hooked up the water.  I got the fan out and sat right in front of it for a while.  I thought I would eat lunch before I did any else but I was so hot that all I wanted to do is drink and drink.  I soon decided to hook up the sewer pipe, drain the black water and rinse out the tank.  Then I rested again.   I decided everything else can wait and I took a cool shower, got comfortable and at 3:30pm decided to make some dinner (mac and cheese). I had several phone calls to make to soon learn that I had very LITTLE phone reception and needed to face the west and hold the phone in one spot.  Then even with that, the calls would drop and I would have to call back.  Texting is working so I guess for the week, I will be doing more texting.  Internet is a little weak but it is working.
