Great thread! I hope I can make a cross country trip in the S one day!

 

First off, we got side-tracked this morning, due to the fact that the Garmin crapped out on us...
So we found a Circuit City in Reno that gave us a prompt exchange and we were on the road again...

405 miles driven today (4365 total)
3 S's spotted today (11 total) 1 for sale, 1 on test drive, and last on hwy 299 (waved)
$88 spent on gas today ($622 total)

We'll start out this post with supplying the state road signs that tried to elude us...



This pic sums up how the gas prices have been for this trip...

Thought today was going to be a rather boring drive through the mountains and down to the Pacific Coast... Was I wrong...

Think I may have found California's version of the Dragon... HWY 299 near Whiskeytown

Thats just a small portion of the run, over all, it was several hours of twistys from end to end...

We did manage to catch a good shot of Mt. Shasta in the distance...


Tomorrow's journey takes us up the Pacific Coast along HWY 101, and through the Redwood National Forest...

 

How did 299 stack up compared to 129?

 

I'm so jealous of your trip. Loving the updates....more, more! Looking forward to your DBR slide show. See you there!

$78 spent on gas today ($700 total)

After spending a night at the KOA in Eureka, CA, we headed for the Redwood National Forest.




To get a better view of the Redwoods we decided to stop in Klamath, CA.



Now, that is a huge tree...


We took a ride up to the top to check out the view...



Driving into the 13th state of this trip...


Below are some nice coastal shots with the S...just for you, Airgate...




At 2AM this morning we finally arrived in Wenatchee, WA. We'll be staying here for a week or so before we are back on the road again to head back to NC...

 

299 was a 3rd and 4th gear dragon, most corners between 35 and 50, a few tight switchbacks... if you take all of 299, it's several hours of twistys, but the section in the pic is about 8 miles or so, and luckily was a clean run...

 

So it's more like hellbender I guess. Good to know if I ever make it over that way.

 

Keep posting. More, more, please. Do you have an album with more pics?

 

Concur ............. Maybe Shutterfly.com or even s2ki.com?

 

Hey guys. I know I called you crazy for doing this but after seeing this thread I think I understand I little more why you wanted to do it. WOW keep it coming.

Stay safe and see you when you get back to NC.
