The Longest Day

   Made it out of San Francisco in one piece, the traffic wasn't even as bad as we expected.  Then we followed Highway 1, the Pacific Coast Highway.  A VERY long day.  The twists and turns, and cliff drop offs made the guys a little tense, and everyone was pretty tired when we finally got off the bikes a few hours ago.  Here are the pics from today's ride:

   It was a really windy day, and I had a hard time capturing a great shot of the beautiful coast line.  Here are a couple of photos from the day:

                                                            

Because we were on motorcycles, the kind folks that own the piece of land that this tree is on, only charged us $3 per motorcycle to drive through.  Cars have to pay $5.

Don't you think that they should have charged this guy a few dollars more.  He was determined and finally made it through.  

For those of you concerned about where to find Bigfoot, you can rest easy.  He is in California, and we have a nice gift shop to prove it.  

   One of our gas stops today proved interesting.  We ended up in a 'sketchy' town, I don't even remember the name.  Here are a couple of pictures of the bathroom we had to use.  

    Anyway, Jerry goes in to use the restroom and ends up leaving his Iphone inside.  He realizes it a few minutes later while we are still at the gas pumps, but just as he heads toward the bathroom, another gentleman steps in.  We had a feeling that the person was going to try and take Jerry's phone, so we gathered around in our leather jackets and waited right outside the door for the guy to come out.  Jerry told me to have my phone ready to call his number in case the guy tried to say that he didn't have the phone.
   The door opens and the guy steps out and looks a little startled to see us standing there. (We are so intimidating in our leather jackets!)  Jerry asks him if he saw a phone in the bathroom . . . the guy reaches into his pocket and says "Oh yeah, I was about to turn that into the office."  Hmmn, we will never know, but the good news is, Jerry has his phone.  (As most of you know, we would have had to begin CPR if he had been without it even a few minutes longer than he was.)

   I'm sure there is a lot more to tell, I'm just too tired to remember.  Maybe I'll add some more later.
