Woke up to a phone call from the room next, quick look outside! Checked it out and saw snow on the bikes, ice on the ground and cloudy skies.
Before long we staged a raid and like navy seals freeing a captive commandeered the breakfast room where we stayed until well after breakfast.
Harley shop in Bakersfield said take route 58 west you won't be sorry. We did and we weren't. One of the most beautiful and challenging roads I've seen. Know as the Carrisa Highway it winds from Bakersfield to San Luis Obispo. Beautiful weather deep blue skies a few scattered clouds temps int he 50's and a road that was part Yarnell, part Oak Creek, and part indescribable, all two lanes.
Stopped in Morro Bay for the night walked down tho the waterfront from our motel for dinner.
Shaky start turned into one of those this is why we are here days.

I asked Ted for an update while I was in the hospital, so he checked out your blog on his cell. While getting a morphine drip, I was glad YOU GUYS were having "this is why we are here days!" Keep enjoying the ride!! Love you!!
Should have taken those tire chains... Having a little trouble visualizing "navy seal" and retired cop/biker who doesn't want to cut his hair. =) Love, me
PS Why am I here?
