I'm a true Washingtonian. I like the cool days and even the rain better than the hot days of summer. However, there is something exciting about getting away and having time to be outside in the sun. This is Seattle as we were driving through on our first day. It's just a reminder of why we are heading south.
On day 2 Oregon was not much better. We had fog and rain the whole day.
As we were coming into Coos Bay, Oregon the bridge just sort of floated above the clouds. It made for a great picture and just another reminder of why we are on this adventure.
After we set up camp I went for a walk and found this heron. Even he looks like he is trying to huddle up against the flog.
California and sunshine! Nope, not yet, as we head through the Redwoods we have more fog and rain.
We spent the night in Clearlake, California. They were very happy to have the rain as it has been so dry. Look how low the lake is. I'm standing where the water line should be.
California and we finally have sun. However, the day started out so foggy that we thought about pulling into a rest area in hopes that it would clear up. As we climbed into the High Desert we left the fog behind. Let's hope this is a sample of weather to come. It was a beautiful 69 degrees today.
