Kettleman City, CA to Roseburg, OR through Stockton, Sacramento, Redding, CA - Medford and Grants Pass, OR


CLOSE CALL? OR IS "DAD" PLAYING "CHICKEN"?

JUST KIDDING - This Semi is being towed



THE SMELL OF VICTORY
Or is it the smell of FOREST FIRE SMOKE? Or FERTILIZER? Or DAIRY FARMS?
When you are in a car you can close the windows - When you are on a motorcycle you get to experience everything! "Cough" "Cough"
CALIFORNIA AND OREGON ARE ON FIRE!

WHAT DID WE GET TO DO TODAY?
Wear our Heated Jackets!  Burrrr! 61 degrees at times!



WHAT DID WE GET TO SEE ON OUR JOURNEY TODAY?

CROWS



EXIT SIGNS



TRUCKS

TRUCK AFTER TRUCK FULL OF TOMATOES

GAS STATIONS - OF COURSE!



PEOPLE WE MEET - NOT TOO OLD TO BRAG!
Today at the Black Bear Diner in Mount Shasta an 80-year old lady shared her motocycle stories with us.  She and her husband had an early model 1976 Honda Goldwing 1000.  In the 70's they towed a tent trailer and camped and traveled their way to all 48 states and Canada. Now the 48 states we can identify with.....but we just can't get our head around the camp trailer tale.  Who would do that? Obviously, two people in love! 


BLAINE, WASHINGTON OUR 4TH AND FINAL CHECK POINT - HERE WE COME!
