It was a great trip along the coast, and I hated to bid it farewell for now. Being able to see the storm-driven waves of the Pacific take bites out of the continent we live on is always an experience.
Shortly after I left CA, the Eureka newspaper ran a story on Last Chance Hill which is caving into the ocean taking a chunk of 101 with it. Interesting problem this presents, as there is no solution.
Oregon roads were better than California, but still rough now and then from slides and such. The towns themselves on the coast (ie, Tillamook) are working on traffic problems and present the biggest hassles.
101 in Washington is basically tedious forest, so I’m in Kelso and will be in Chimacum tomorrow.
