Mile 607.2: Hotel In Fort Bragg, CA

Posted on September 5th, 2012 by Alex Mills via iPhone

After a very long day and then a night of slow driving dodging deer, we finally made it to our hotel for the night. At 375 miles, today should be the longest segment of our trip — no more 13 hour days thankfully.

Mile 567.6: Starry Night

Posted on September 4th, 2012 by Alex Mills via iPhone

I’m currently sitting in the Viper with Stephane and the top down on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere staring at a cloudless star-filled night sky. So beautiful. Stephane just spotted a shooting star too. We haven’t seen another car for at least an hour, probably closer to two. This is an awesome road trip so far.

The western most point in the lower 48 states Oregon. Insanely foggy and windy!

EDIT: Turns out Cape Alava in Washington is ever so slightly more west than Cape Blanco.

Mile 231.9: Motel In Coos Bay, OR

Posted on September 3rd, 2012 by Alex Mills via iPhone

Stephane and I made it safe and sound to our first overnight stop. The Viper burned about 14 gallons of gas and got 15.6 miles to the gallon. Glug glug!
