Starting off this morning – the bottom photo is one of the bridges (not the Golden Gate as we passed it on account of fog and took a shorter route) heading into the Bay area. I took a bunch of scenery photos from the van today (mostly through a dirty window!). We drove for about 7 hours and aside from some freeway accidents, thankfully the GPS and the good old road map kept us on track. Such a variety of scenery in one day – even some dust devils. The photos are posting in revese order (backwards) so if you want to see them in order, start at the bottom and work up.
Steve would like me to note for posteritythat: He got fingered twice by the same guy in Oregon for being too slow and got spoken to by a CHiP officer here in CA for driving too fast (5 miles over!). Actually both times gave us a good laugh. The guy in OR sped past us only to exit on the slow scenic route (huh?!) and the guy from CHiPs spoke to us by speeding up alongside on his motorcycle and using his loudspeaker to inform us of our speed. We all nearly jumped out of our skin! They make for good stories though. 🙂
What an amazing road trip!!!
