Day 23: Costal Oregon to Costal California

Miles: 5,444

States: 21 (California!)

Jason's still driving the entire way. He wants to drive all the way down the coast. I can't complain! I've been knitting and navigating.

We drove through hundreds of miles of redwood forests, including a 300+ foot tall redwood with a car-sized hole in the bottom. More beautiful beaches.

There was a gas scare after the drive-thru tree. We were almost on empty when we left, almost stopped for gas, but said "oh, we'll fill up in a few miles." False. Forty miles and an hour later, after some of the most terrifying hair-pin turns and guard-rail-less sheer cliffs, we put 20.5 gallons in the 20 gallon tank.

We're listening to Harry Potter. Jason has never read them! Lots of wand/spell/wizard jokes.
