Mountains on both sides of the high plains farm/ranch district of Northern California. Because we share the driving, Ruthi did indeed get to/have to drive the ups/downs. We could see that it was much different on south-bound Interstate 5. We remembered our rush through these same mountains when we left Anchorage and hurried to LA in June of 2008.
The temperatures are much more comfortable now that we have left the high Sierras snowy season. It’s still rainy a bit but definitely shorts and maybe tank tops in a couple of days. Everything is greening up and Ruthi is looking forward to road side cherry stands – as Bings are her favorite fruit.
