I’m in Lemoore, at a very big casino, somewhere in the middle of the SJ Valley. I survived the most unappealing Mojave Desert, and spent a few hours on CA 99. They’ve resurfaced 99 since I was here last, which was a relief. Then I noted that they excluded repairing two things: the top of an overpass, and the road under an overpass. It was vicious. I’m moving over to I-5 tomorrow.
I’ll stay at Lodi for two nights to rest up before heading to Napa and beyond. My target is Eureka, but I’ll go slow.
