Part 4

Submitted by Doug on 26 August, 2008 - 18:10.

We have made it as far as San Francisco. A trip to the consulate in the morning and back on the road.

The trailer is doing great, the van proved to be just the right size for three dog crates. The dogs are doing well, considering none of them have traveled much before. Lots of 'potty' breaks but we are still making decent time. Grants Pass was a work out for the van, had to run with the defrosters maxed to keep from overheating. We found a nice hotel by the bay that allows pets, The Vagabond Inn, so everyone gets a day off from the road to relax. Time for a beer, more later...

So now you will have another place to visit when you come down.

Bring your machete there is a lot to do ;)

You made good time seeing that the hill into Medford is a killer on cars/vans/tracks pulling trailers. Watch it around Salem if you take the inland route, a lot of cops but do not worry about the mordidas!

we made it to CA...

and not one single bribe, yet. Any bets on how far we get before the first one?

I'll send you a pm if we can make it, after spending a couple nights in rest stops it may be hard to pry the wife out of the hotel :)
