Come along with full time RVers Sue and Mark as they continue to explore the Castaic Lake State Recreation Area in this Part 2 of 2 episode. This episode explores the east and west shores of the upper dam reservoir lake . If we were Angelino's, we most certainly would be using all this park has to offer year around!

    this is a place I have never been to. the water level is so low but if you see the lake at Las Vegas it is also very low. so proud of Mark jogged all that distance and still had enough energy to hold up the flag pole. Like I said I have never been there but now I can say I have, I was with Mark and Sue

    Hi Mark and Sue! Very nice tour of that lake. I was wondering if Mark would and counsel make that run and prayed he did and he did. It’s beautiful there. The other side is more better more boat launching. Thank looked fun to do when you brought food to picnic with on your bikes. Too bad you drove later on and not road your bikes. Or was it too far of a bike ride? At least you both had fun. Thank you for this video.

    • @OurJourneyInMyles
      @OurJourneyInMyles  3 роки тому

      Hey Larry, this is Sue.... there is a story. Mark and I met through swing dancing. When we started dating we took another dance class that included latin dances like salsa, merengue, rumba, cha-cha, etc. When doing these dances during class, we were really sweating, even though it didn't seem like we were moving much compared to swing dance. So after a break we were back with the class... sweating again. I looked at Mark in a sassy way and said, "Oh Marco.... when I dance with you I get so... Hot!" We both broke out laughing and had the whole class' attention. And there it is... the story! Thanks for asking...😁

      @OurJourneyInMyles  3 роки тому

      Not sure,.........we have been nervous a few times on the bikes here in California, especially on the Pacific Ocean coast trails. So far, so good! We try to go slow when folks are around, and always try to be pedaling.
