No internet. Therefore no photos. Zip. Zero. Nada. Florence Oregon, thank you for reminding us of that. Couple from the last two days;
Paul and Babe in Klamath California –
The coast, as hard as –
And as we settle in for the night, a sunset from the balcony –
Not so bad for a couple of rookies?
Tomorrow it’s off to home, and, reality.
More boring family vacation photos later.
Some shots from the road, courtesy of the passenger –
Well, there you have it, a snapshot of our ride today. We’re in Eureka, having covered 300+ miles. Started out nice (68 and sunny), got cold (60 degrees), rained a whole bunch (soaked), got hot (107 degrees) and everything in between. More later and details too.
Thanks to Marla for playing photographer today.
Not a lot of pictures the last couple days, sorry. Busy being lazy. That’s that.
Wishing everyone a Happy 4th of July.
Thanks to everyone that makes these things possible, YOU are the true celebration –
More from the road later.
Unless you think hanging with people you love and eating good counts as productive –
Oh yeah, we shopped gazillion dollar boats. Julie says she’s gonna write a check for the Riva. I’m not sure Dan knows…..
And by the way, hanging with people you love is the most productive thing ever.
Sans clouds (which happens about every once in a never) –
*Squirreling: verb – Move in an inquisitive and restless manner
We did. Seems everyone was doing it –
Today’s highlights include a mountain I don’t know the name of, Hood I think –
Rocks under quarantine –
At 7700 feet, there’s plenty of snow still around –
And thanks to a suggestion from Pop, Crater Lake –
Thanks for the suggestion Pop, it was a perfect day to visit the lake. I’ll see you tomorrow.
For the rest of you, if you’ve never seen Crater Lake you should. My shoddy photo skills certainly do not do it justice.
Milton kept us on course and has secured another day in the Navigator’s chair. We’ll see if he can get us to Tahoe tomorrow…..
And ran into closed roads
And turned the wrong way
But we did find the mountain we set out for, she was playing hide-n-seek in the clouds –
Rainier
Right after that we went through a dark tunnel and had difficulty finding our way –
Tunnel of love
That’s when it got hot (in the 90’s), we got lost, traffic jams, construction delays, you name it. We found our way, even though it wasn’t what we had in mind. Last shot of the day; find the waterfall –
It’s there, keep looking
So there’s that. We’re looking into alternate routes for tomorrow. We’re rather lost. Milton is on the verge of quitting. All good. We’re having a blast.
More later.
So we will. Tomorrow we’re off to see a Mountain (Rainier), and a whole load of twisty roads we’ve never ridden. Milton is playing Lead Navigator on this trip, he’s READY!
I’ll take photos, but no guarantees that I’ll post in a timely manner. Wish us luck.
‘Rev it up, rev it up little boy and ride’
Last few days have brought some nutty weather. The wildlife is having a hard time keeping up. So this afternoon, when the sun came out, the workforce was right back at it. Even the butterflies were doing the pollinating –
Good work butterfly, seems all the bees have taken the afternoon off.
