Well - a few(??) years ago when I retired from my job in Colorado we took off on Jan.1 for the pacific Coast. 28 ft fiver. Snow in the mountains until we hit the OR. Coast just west of Tillamook. Then down 101 all the way to San Diego before heading back to Colorado on Feb.1
Rain, wind and stormy ocean and we absolutely loved it. To us - the winter storms on the Pacific Coast are just magnificent! Cool also - temp. probably never exceeded 50 degrees until we hit southern California. That trip is still one of our best memories!! But be prepared for wet and cool!
