The Ride Day 14

What a day! Started as always early i9n the morning and enjoyed the ride on HWY 101 all the way to Olympia Washington. It was fun as the views were great along the water to the east and the Olympia mountains to the west. Mt Olympus still had its snow cap on!
After about 120 miles of serene riding all of a sudden there it was I-5... the road to Dana Point.
At Roseburg Oregon I got caught in a bad thunderstorm with winds strong enough to topple over a mobile home on the freeway. Got soaked and since it never really got cold and dried out within 30 minutes.
So on I went through Washington Oregon and guess what all of a sudden there was a sign:
WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA. That came with a view of snow covered and cloudy Mt Shasta.
Along the way I hit a bad thunderstorm. Thankfully it never got very cold and I dried out within 30 minutes or so. As the day wore on so did my desire to get closer to home!
I rode until 7:30PM called mom had a lite Italian dinner and soon I will be asleep as tomorrow I want to get started early again to avoid the morning rush in Sacramento and the weekend rush in LA.
Only about 500 more miles to go and what started out as a fancy dream will have be a memory that will stay with me forever.
Over the week end I will try to put together a meaningful epilogue and hope fully I will be able to put into words those things that were and are the most important to me!
