I'm on my way to Portland! Left SF at noon on Tuesday and headed up the I-505. Stopped in Willows. In case you were curious, Tori Burke is the manager at the Walmart there, and she has hung her photo proudly over the paper towel dispenser in the women's bathroom. Took a detour through the lovely green hills east of the Mendocino National Forest, dreaming of goat herds and strawbale barns, clean rivers and chicken coops and beehives.
And when the dream of a compostable agrarian existence begins to tire, you can go to a Republican pancake breakfast at the local school.
It really is beautiful out here. Last stop was the perfectly adequate Mountain View motel in Yreka.
