Here we are in California. Wow, the world is green! Everything is drenched in fog...
As for the trip, we left at 7:15 am, Boise Time. Arrived on the Pacific Coast 15.5 hours later. Trip was fairly uneventful...
West of Vale, Oregon, the road was snow pack, beginning to break-up and freeze. Was like driving on a washboard, and I don't think I cracked 35 mph more than a couple times over about 80 miles of road. Passed a semi rig that didn't navigate a curve too well. I don't think he had put his chains on. Sideways on the shoulder. When I got past Burns, Or, and the pavement was clear, it was like a whole new world. 55 (the posted speed) never felt so fast!
The only other bit of trouble came west of Willow Creek, when the fog hit. Had to slow waaaaay down a couple times, just to even see the white line. When I was driving down 101 to the house I'm staying at, the fog played major tricks with my tired, tired eyes. Oncoming traffic lights made shadows of the signs on the side of the road dance and jump around at the side of the road, looking like herds of little deer waiting to jump across. I nearly came to a stop. Then laughed and realized I really needed to get off the road!
I'm off to my day. Will post pictures later. It's so green!!!!
