Well, if you'd have sent me a note before you came out here, you could have jumped in the boat for an afternoon
Sounds like a great trip. I've driven all those roads many times. BKH

What a great trip! How many of you guys that were kids in 60s remember watching Then Came Bronson and dreamed of heading up the PCH on your 69 Sportster one day. I know I did.

Over 1000 Fires were burning here. The Big Sir/Santa Cruz fire was a big one. None in our immediate area. However, the entire bay area and central valley has been covered in smoke. Could not see the mountain for about 10 days, and didn't see blue sky for a week. Smelled like a campfire everywhere.
The winds came up the last couple of days, and cleared the air out a bit, but didn't help the firefighters much. BKH |

"Stuck in Lodi Again" - Credence Clearwater Revival.
Yep, Lodi is 30 miles from my house. I could have even picked you up by boat. We take the boat over to Lodi for Breakfast now and again. You were also very close to 88 Nautique who lives in the foothills outside of Yosemite. 140 is a a real hoot driving an RV or towing a trailer. It's a good one, but we have some with more bends. Maybe next trip. BKH |
