Oregon/California

Tuesday, May 24th.

Crooked River Canyon is impressive, with good historical signs.

Collier Logging Museum is worth a stop.  Still a work in progress, but is very peaceful and informative.  More than logging.

Played tag with three rebuilt roadster convertibles.  We shared the pain of occasional rain squalls.  They said the Yosemite pass was closed due to snow.  Road was busy!  Clearly, summer vacations have begun.

Got hit by a bug squarely in the glass lens with force!  Thought it might have cracked.  Stopped to clean it off and a CHP officer came by.  Impressed with my trip.

Drove through Weed, CA.  “I [heart] Weed” t-shirts for sale.

This shall probably be my last story-telling post of this Adventure.  The rest of the ride covers ground already traveled.  A recap entry on Friday is likely.

This old bridge is still sound. Just too narrow. So they built a new one.

I like the fact that Oregon tore down the billboards. Southeastern states should consider this.
