This morning, I woke up at about 7am and walked into the casino to use the restroom and have a coffee. After losing $250 last night due to impatience, greed, and bad luck, I found $20 in my wallet and started playing blackjack. After about an hour I cashed out with $200, which recouped most of last night’s losses.
At about 8:30am, I started driving the approximately 5 hours on 101 south to San Francisco. A couple of hours south of Eureka, I noticed a billboard off of the freeway about a nearby casino. Because I also needed to fill up on gas and take a shower, I exited the freeway and drove toward the direction of the casino. About twenty miles later I reached the Clearlake region with the cities of Lakeport and Upper Lake. I played about 30-45 minutes of blackjack and cashed out the same amount I started with.
After passing Eureka, the terrain and views for the day were much dryer inland/desert scenery. Since highway 101 wasn’t following the ocean anymore, there weren’t any exciting hikes or views that caught my interest.
About an hour before San Francisco, I showered at an Anytime Fitness and continued on to San Francisco to meet Gabriela for dinner. We met at the UCSF Parnessus library and walked over to a Korean restaurant a few blocks away. Afterwards, I walked her home and walked back to the RV to spend the night.
