Leaving the North Coast
It has just snowed a few days ago in Arcata. I hurriedly hitch up the cats to my "Cat Sled". The Lead Cat is already tugging at his harness in anxious apprehension of the long fish (mush) south to the land of eternal sunshine. We headed south from ...

Living the good life on Buttermilk Lane
... for a rendezvous with Sandy in her cozy house on Buttermilk Lane, where a Pooh Bear ought to be. Arcata is a trippy place. Ilana thinks half the population is stoned and if you hang around the downtown long enough you start ...
Redwoods!

Where Did You Sleep Last Night?
... in favour of more time spent out in the American wilderness. There are reasons - the sheer logistics of getting across the States for starters - and the National Parks are simply stunning and do justify the time spent there, but as we have rolled out of ...
Welcome to Humboldt County
... nach der anderen besucht hatte, stand mir der Sinn wieder nach einem etwas friedlicheren Ort, abseits der ueblichen Touristenpfaden. Arcata schien mir ideal, da es zwischen San Francisco und Portland liegt und mir gesagt wurde, dass es Aehnlichkeiten mit ...

Arcata
This is one interesting town, at night I wasn't sure if people were homeless and scary or just fun loving hippies (turns out the latter is true). This university town is perfect if you are afraid of hairdressers as no-one seems to pay mind to their ...

Pre-departure jitters
The next time I write, we will have landed in Panama City and enjoyed at least a beer; however, that is still 66 hours away, but who's counting. We finally finished packing our bags. Mine came in at 18.2 lbs and Bella's at 18.8. Both under our 20 lb ...
Arcata California is an Oasis
... Gear, and climb that tall monolith! Taking a 360-degree panorama series of photos from there, would include the whole town of Arcata, and the University, all the way across the broad expanse of Humboldt Bay, to the ocean! Now I'm continuing-on, ...

On the road again
Took off from Arcata early this morning (well, not that early...). (Just me and the road) Drove north on 101 up to Grant's Pass, joined 5 North and booked my way up to Portland... What a great city, and I got to enjoy it for about an hour and a ...

Final stop in Cali!
Yesterday we left Caspar beach and headed up north on highway 1, along the coast towards Arcata. The strecth of highway 1 that we were on was some of the most tense nailbitiing driving you could ever do, now add a 39foot trailer into the mix! The ...
Out of the fire, into the fridge
