Hello Everyone! I don't have much time to write right now - so just a quick update. Spent a wonderful weekend at Sonia's cabin in Snowqualmie pass and drove south from there. Yesterday I drove over 1,000km... something I didn't think I could do because I usually have a hard time staying awake while driving across town! But I think it is these books on tape! I love it - for those curious as to what I am listening to - more to come on that later.
I slept last night in the back of my car at a rest stop just north of the California border.... I was a little scared, but there were quite a few people sleeping in there cars here, so that was a bit comforting..... still I kept picturing a tap on the window and turning around to see someone in a ski mask threatening me with a chain saw....... perhaps I have seen too many horror movies?
Anyways nothing of interest happened all night (a good thing) and I even slept in to 7:30... I thought I would be awake at the crack of dawn. Temperatures dropped over night - it was -10C when I woke up!! Freezing! But I was given a new sleeping bag for Christmas good to -20C so I was ok (Thanks Sonia & mom!!).
OK got to run - still have 5 hours to drive from Redding to Yosemite where I will probably camp tonight (or hostel - but apparently sleeping in your car is illegal)....
Bye for now!
ps. pictures to come!
