Jamie,
I'll take us through the mountains on the last half,
so they can enjoy the coast in Oregon.
They'll get Hwy 1 through Big Sur and Carmel,
then Napa Valley, then mountains and valley, then your
coastline. Sounds pretty varied.
Hwy 5 is dry, but there is Booneville and the coast range,
which I always enjoy. Clear Lake, Calistoga,
We'll see what I can find.
The original handoff point was Eureka, but I'll see how the
mileage looks. We can play it by ear. Was Eureka a
problem for you? Not that there's anything special about
it as far as I know, but something we should avoid there?
