Joanne and I started out about 4.30, trip odometer about 49 | |
Headed down Highway 85 toward Gilroy |
|
Photos at the Gilroy Chamber of Commerce. | |
Back on 101 down the 30 miles to Salinas. Traffic coming North is completely packed, not stop-and-go, Hope it's gone before we have to head home. |
|
Central Salinas, looking for the new government
center building which should be nearing completion. Couldn't find it, but did find a suitable parking lot sign for photos. |
|
Downtown, we found a law firm that Tracy might want to work for. | |
Stopped at a little produce stand on No. Main St.
looking for some artichokes. No 'chokes, but some other good stuff. Couple 'cukes, some limes, an avocado, a few pears -- total: $2.69. Closed them down, it's now 7:00. |
|
Looking for a place for supper, we had passed a
joint called Gutierrez Drive In at East Ross St. and Sherwood Dr. Joanne had
a enchilada special (#22) that came with I had a combination (#20) that included Everything was really good. Highly recommend. |
|
Fueled up in Salinas at an American Mart gas
station/mini-mart
on Main St. $2.699 a gallon for premium, 3.242 gallons, $8.75 total. Trip odometer at 127.1, reset to 0.0 Headed back up 101, now getting kind of cool. Road side sign says 53 degrees at about 8:30. Stopped at the McDonald's in Morgan Hill on E. Dunne St. for a quick warm-me-up coffee. |
|
A good trip, but the intercom system
sucks. Too hard to hear one another, head sets do not fit well in the helmets, can't adjust the volume easily while in Joanne's pocket, but it seems to adjust itself without notice. |
|
Home at about 9:15, trip odometer
at 66. Totals are 138 miles in 4 hours and 45 minutes. |
