NORTHERN CALIFORNIA - SAN FRANCISCO AND SHASTA LAKE



October 1, 2008



Leaving the Oregon coast we drove down to Northern California through the Shasta Lake area, Napa Valley, ending in San Francisco. There was one winery after another that we knew in Napa Valley (surprised??). We ate at a Chinese restaurant in SF Chinatown that Dick ate at in the 1970s - it has been there for 65 years. I actually walked across the Golden Gate Bridge to get a great view of San Francisco.



yosemite national park



October 3, 2008



Our drive through Yosemite started off quite normal however, our trip back home was anything but normal. We entered the east side of the park, drove through to the west side, and had to loop back through the mountains to return to our campground. Unfortunately, we underestimated the travel time back and ended up atop Sonora Pass (9624 ft elevation) after dark, in the snow. Scared to death, for once in my life I shut up for the FIVE hour ride back.



lake tahoe



October 4, 2008



Estie drove all the way from Las Vegas, via a "scenic" route, that added a couple of hours to her trip to come see us in Lake Tahoe. The day started off with rain, but the sun finally shined giving us some gorgeous rainbows. We drove the circle around the lake with a quick side trip to Truckee, California. Thanks Eileen for the tip!! Dick just LOVED the ride with three "old" ladies in the truck (yes, Yargo you count). He'll probably start drinking again......
