Considering the delay of this entry posting, I’m going to keep it short and sweet.  A journey along Pacific Coast Highway added time to our trip, but was inconsequential, given the beauty of Northern California’s coastline and scattered, ...

Further up the coast, still on the road!

I last left you on the road between San Diego and  LA, and I write this current entry at in a tent on the coast of very northern California in a tent on the beach with just the sound of the waves (and Ben and Alfie) for company. Right now is one of ...

This morning I crossed into California. Basically my memories or Oregon are as a cold, windy Hell. Sorry, Kevin & Paula, I guess I'll have to visit again to fully appreciate it. Anyway it was still raining, but I soldiered on to the Redwoods Hostel ...

Where the Redwoods Grow...Northern California
Sep 10, 2007 (6 photos)

Driving through the Redwoods we loved the size of the trees, but were a little distracted because night was coming in fast and we needed a campground. Now this is amazing how the Lord works, we pulled in to a few different campgrounds but could not be ...

... of mushrooms from your lawn, or ripen your tomatoes a whole month early - I'm your man. My last stop in Oregon was at Klamath Falls.  Don't be fooled by the romantic sounding name - the place is Oregon's answer to Scunthorpe.  It did allow me ...

Klamath Falls - Return
Aug 2, 2008

After the long drive from Portland, we picked up a U-Haul and loaded everything to be taken to the new apartment, and left a few things.  My stomach was still a bit off, so when I had shrimp and beer for lunch I was just being a dumb-ass.  After ...

... ’t know how to stay on our side of the road, and then headed out of Sequoia. Today was a really long drive to Klamath Falls, about 9 hours. Vanessa was a trooper and drove most of the way. Nothing really exciting on the road, except for Mount Shasta, ...

Arriving at my first motel
Feb 25, 2009

The drive went well.  I listened to about 4 hours of NPR Science Talk from my iPhone.  (Note, the cigarette lighter adapter that drives my FM transmitter had to be jerry-rigged with a fuse that I found in my glove-box.  This needs to be ...

Coos Bay to Klamath
Nov 6, 2006

Coos Bay to Klamath Another long boring drive through fog and rain. Stopped off at a quayside restaurant at some lousy little hick town or another. Food was quite nice for a change. Their version of roast beef lacked the trimmings of the far-superior ...

Klamath
Nov 7, 2006

Klamath Should probably have checked out and moved on. Hostel has a stupid all day closed policy - not just a few hours as I had thought originally, but all day from 10 until 5. Brilliant. Stuck in the middle of absolutely nowhere where it's raining 24-7 ...

Got into camp around 4:00 PM Monday night and were surprised to find other campers! We have never seen anyone camped here before- maybe because we come in the late fall or winter? We WERE overweight so very relunctantly began to transfer things to ...

Klamath Falls
Jun 18, 2008

Klamath Falls is where I was going to school at the time - OIT (Oregon Institute of Technology). I left from my apartment in downtown after moving all of my things to a temporary holder since I wasn't coming back and packing up everything for my trip. ...

Settled In
Jun 20, 2008

Today was off to a late start. The star left around 1000 from Las Vegas, NV. From there we flew into Klamath Falls air national guard base. The scenery is breath taking!! In the distance a single snow capped mountains stands to the south. We head north ...
