I decided to take a pass on the coast and head north inland to stay out of the traffic and crowds of the California coast on the weekend. It was a very good decision, and I had a beautiful run up the east side of the Sierras on 2 lane roads with minimal traffic.

300 miles north of Palm Springs, I'm in the land of ski slopes, fly fishing, $5 gas, and small towns that feel like small towns. Bishop, where I stayed, was big enough to have a few motels, coffee shops, restaurants, and shops related to the business of the great outdoors.
Add 300 more miles the next day, and I'm now just a day out of Oregon and two days from home. Not trying to rush things, but as I passed the 3,000 mile point, getting home a little ahead of schedule doesn't sound bad. '
