Day 40 – A Coastal Comeback
Today was the antidote for yesterday’s frustration. When booking my hotel for Saturday night I wanted somewhere south of San Francisco but I was a little too far south and had to backtrack a little today to get all the coast has to offer. It was worth the effort because I was able to see … Continue reading Day 40 – A Coastal Comeback
Day 39 – A Foggy Fail
When I looked at the redwood forest video from yesterday I was so disappointed because the blinding sun-glare completely hid the beauty of those groves.

I have completed 7,034 miles which matches my estimate of 14,000 miles for the whole trip and I am at Brookings, Oregon which is just 7 miles from California. Today was a fairly long … Continue reading Day 35 – Halfway Point
Day 34 – Northern Oregon Coast
My favorite meal of the day is breakfast and I like to eat it at a local diner when in smaller towns, such as Seaside. Normally this works well and I find interesting places that offer a local twist on the traditional breakfast fare. Today, however, was an exception. The cafe looked great and there … Continue reading Day 34 – Northern Oregon Coast
