Rising early in our pup tent we packed up and walked to a lodge for breakfast. It was much colder than when we went to bed. As we finished breakfast, fog or clouds began obscuring the far end of the lake. We rushed back to the bikes and began preparations to leave. Then the "fog" hit us - it was snow!!! We rode off the mountains in snow for a few miles - it was cold.
We used interstates as often as possible to help speed us along. From Boise, we headed northwest to Seattle and stopped for the day near Seattle.
We then dusted ourselves off and snapped this picture.
The next day we drove to Crescent City, on the coast of California, where a bike shop helped with some minor damage repair. We then drove into San Francisco. That night we stayed with a cadet from Cal's company.
The next day we drove to Los Angeles and spent some time on Highway 101, which is very windy along the coast, and the speed limit was a little too low for us - we were stopped by the police and mailed in the fine. We spent the night at classmate John Campbell's home.
Then a short trip to San Diego where we visited with Cal's Grandparents in the city of La Jolla.
