Wow, what a long, but beautiful drive. After a sleepless night, got on the road at 3:30am. Glad we didn’t leave earlier, as we could have been involved in a fuel tanker jack knife and spill that closed Interstate 5 north of Los Angeles. After 14.5 hours, we arrived in Bend, and got our tired butts into our Airbnb lodging. Sipping an Omme Gang Three Philosophers Bourbon Barrel Ale. Got sourdough ready to toast, while homemade soup heats on the stove. Tomorrow, we set out to find beer and good cheer.
