Some great roads to Reno STAR DAYS

roadstar-rich · 07-21-2012, 07:36 PM

So the trip is on, the route mapped out, the packing done, and all parties present for Day One of a new adventure into uncharted waters, or in this case roads that I have never been on for sure. Let’s hope the navigation system really works and maybe we should have considered the flare gun as an emergency option just in case. Wayne, Johney and I take off on Sunday July 15, 2012 at about 6:45 AM heading for San Luis Obispo, then Hwy 1 along the coast to Monterey where we part with Johney to go his separate way, and the two of us continuing on to Salinas or possibly Merced some 480 miles total.

THE REST INCLUDING ALL THE PHOTOS are ON MY BLOG, it's just easier for me

It worked out really well, thanks for taking the time to take a look. Would have been nice to spend more time in some of those historic towns along the way but we mostly zipped through. Hwy 49 is a doozy.

Looks like you had a great time Rich! I really like coming down 395 and we have photos at the same Mono Lake overlook as you, from our trip to Lake Almanor with the Skibolds.
