Travels Up the West Coast: July 1997
Day One

Day One: July 7th, 1997...Monday

I-5 North

Driving past Mt Shasta


Well, we left Roseville at about 6:30am and made good time all the way up the California Central Valley...

8mi N of Weed...


...but we had a slight problem about 8 miles north of Weed...

Shasta Crash Site


This is a view looking south at our crash site...For more details, see The Story of My Plymouth Neon...Needless to say, Day One was pretty much shot, and we had to cancel our room at the Captain Cook Inn in Lincoln City, Oregon, since we obviously weren't going to make it all the way there by that night...We stayed in Weed at the Motel Hi-Lo just a brief walk from where my poor car was towed and left...
