Sooooo, Spring is here?

The above photograph was taken about ten days ago.  Now, here we are four days to Easter.  More snow and rain coming  in,   That’s good one one hand; but been a cold Winter her in Montana.  

Now the issue is, can I leave the ranch?  With snow on the seven miles of dirt road, some of the drive on a relatively steep and windy section; just don’t think I want to chance  attempting  the drive out with the XL.  Good news is no plans to leave until around April 7th.  Just maybe the worm will turn by then.  

Off to Morro Bay for some beach R&R and fine sea food at Dorn’s Restaurant and fish and chips on the pier.  While there, hope to drive Hwy 1; but with all the storms kinda doubt it is open.  Funny, when I lived in San Luis Obispo I rode Hwy 1 so often got a bit board with it!    

This is my first bike, 1976 BMW R90S.   I will never admit riding sometimes at speeds of 100+ then having to downshift to 15 MPH for one of the many curves.  Great fun!

So now if I can take the XL up be a much slower ride!  

The route is  beautiful drive - through the Gallatin Gap onto West Yellowstone first nigh probably southwest of Idaho Falls.  Continue through Ely, NV find a wide spot to RON.  Then onto Bishop and load up on bread at SCHATS BAKERY.    Will overnight at a HARVEST HOAST in Independence- Mt Whitney Golf Course.  Final leg - blast to Tempilton , CA and stay at a winery, another HARVEST HOAST - CASTORO CELLERS.  Motor into Morro Bay and relax for a week.

​See You Down The Road
