While still in Fresno, I got up early and headed out the door by 9 AM, |
 |
for the Farmers Market from 7 AM to noon. ( 9AM and out the door is early for me!) |
 |
There is a stand that had the best tamales. I would get up early every Saturday morning to get those tamales if I lived in Fresno. |
 |
I love going to Farmers Markets to get the local fresh produce. |
 |
Just some of the produce that we got. Cilantro, purple cauliflower, (which was yummy and beautiful to look at), carrots, and oranges. |

We left Fresno, CA. and took Hwy. 41 North toward Bass Lake, CA. |
 |
The green foothills turned to rocky, green foothills and a few trees. |
 |
Then we did some steep inclines. |
 |
Picture of Oakhurst, CA. below. The decent going into Oakhurst, was a long steep grade. " Joe are you using the Jake Brake?", is now my famous line. |
Joe said he was glad we were not going out this way. We would burn a lot of diesel going up that mountain. |
 |
 |
Oakhurst, CA. is located 8 miles south of Bass Lake, where we were headed. |
 |
Oakhurst is where we come when we needed groceries, while at Bass Lake. But on this drive, we drove on through Oakhurst and back up another mountain. |
 |
North of Oakhurst, we enter into the Sierra National Forest once again. |
 |
After a couple of turns, we almost miss our turn into Bass Lake Resort. The GPS said we had .02 miles to go. This sign is right after a curve also. If you are coming here to stay, don't depend on your GPS, and slow down, because the sign sneaks up on you real fast. |
 |
The drive coming in, is narrow and windy, and a bit confusing. Drive slow, and follow the signs. Registration office in picture above, as we approach. |
 |
This is where we are currently. The sites are very close to each other. Fortunately the park is not full, so we have some space between RVs. This is a ROD campground, so we are staying here free for two weeks. (Joe reminded me we had to pay $3 per day for electricity). |
