This is for you, Bart!

This blog, and the adventure it describes, are dedicated to my friend, co-worker and fellow adventure lover, Bart.
Bart would prefer to be riding his Moto Guzzi down a scenic road,
but unfortunately he is limited by health issues.


My hat (helmet) is off to you, my friend, and I hope you will get some enjoyment from
reading about my little adventure until you are well enough to get back to planning your own.

Cheers,
Rick.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
but I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep.

Redwood camp

It rained most of the night... at least I think it did.
When you camp under the trees, it doesn't stop raining when it does for everyone else.
But at 6:00am, only the tree drainage continued, and the skies were starting to clear.
It was a beautiful campground. I think Sandy would like to come here and stay in one of  their log cabins.
Here's one of them between 2 "little" redwood stumps:
 
Chuckle...
I'm sitting in Denny's eating breakfast.
Three people come in and take a booth near me - two men and a woman.
Seriously backwoods folks - close to "my other brother Darrell" and his sister. :-)
I'm guessing they don't get to town often.
A few minutes later a window-shattering sound blasts from their booth...  BUUUUUUURP!!!!
After a couple seconds of silence, one of the men says, "What do you say?"
The woman says "Excuse me."
