    Well for those who are interested we are 93 miles from home.
    Olbill is going to the hospital tomorrow and get himself checked again. I'm keeping his bike overnight tonight and deliver it to him this week. We all agree that we will not trade the country side here in Oregon for any of the deserts or sourhern Califomicated. So nice to be back where it's green and there are trees.

    Here is a pic of MT Shasta I took when we where passing by.

    I'm home and I still have Olbills bikes my trailer. Will get it to him in a couple of days. Only 700 miles today and what sucked I'd in CA any vehicle pulling a trailer the speed limit is 55 even on freeways when its posted at 70. You feel like your standing still but we ran it up to 60 to keep the trucks from running us over. Lots of bikes on the roads.
    Glad Olbill is home I think he needed that.

    Lived around Mt. Shasta twice during the eighties. Farther north you go, the better the scenery gets. I remember the roads were kept up better, too. Hope Ol' Bill is okay.

    What can i say when you have 2 friends like Marc and Loren it don't git any better than that.There is one thing i have found out that Harley riders are among best that there is.I don't know how to thank my 2 buddies other than THANK YOU !!!!!!!.I don't believe i have ever been so sick so guy's drink a lot of water when your in country like i was in i just about checked out.But when Marc said he was on the way and you guys sent prayers it was a major turn around for me.so God bless every one of you!!!!!!!!

    Much older OLBill
