My sister had to replace her chickens because they quit laying. These ones are only 8 weeks old and won't start laying for another 8 weeks.

After leaving my sisters this morning, I rode the 150 miles to Red Bluff and had an early lunch at Los Mariahis

I thought of trying to get my iron horse in the same picture but the horse seemed to be a bit nervous of my bike so I didn't.



I rode highway 36 from Red Bluff to the Wildwood road. It intersected highway 3 after twenty miles and I rode 3 on in to Yreka. Nothing but curves and scenery!

There were a lot of these little farms in the Wildwoood area. Here the farmer is tending his crop! A few years ago we would go to jail for that!

I stopped at a rest area and parked next to this RepliCobra. Nice guy, but the highway sure didn't go where he said it did.

The Cobra owner said I wouldn't go anywhere near Trinity Lake.





In spite of Covid 19 there were a lot of people out enjoying the Lake. For the most part there were social distancing pretty well.

On the other hand, the lake is not over crowded.

As I approached the line, the traffic control guy told me to ride around to the front of the line.

I guess he could tell that I might be a little rude passing all of them later. :) :) :)

The gal driving the pilot car was hard to follow. She would go about 10 mph then speed up to 20 mph then brake check me hard to about 15 mph. By the time we got to the end, she was up to 45 mph.

The window of opportunity for hiking this has come and gone and I never got it done.

I made it to the summit on my bike and I didn't even have to pedal too hard.

I was riding around one of the Yreka residential areas and this guy was taking a little stroll through the same.

Some very nice old architecture in old town Yreka. They are still trying to push the State of Jefferson from what I can see. Maybe they should go to Seattle for some pointers!

Helmets and Hash Browns for breakfast Not planned, but we crossed the continental divide 6 times on this trip. Four of those crossing were first for both of us. Boot Heel in Animas Right behind Boot Heel I've ridden past the tiny village of Portal several times always saying I'll stop next time. This was next time. Sherm wanted to check out the Gadsen Hotel in Douglass. We both made the right decision. Meet Portal.......this is all it is until .......... They bring in live music Dead snakes I give you all a better than 50/50 chance of guessing what this car is. 1928 phone number is only 4 digits Ha ve you guessed it yet? Just past Portal is Cave Creek Canyon It's referred to as Arizona's Yosemite A few old historic buildings still in the canyon Along with beautiful rock formations Cutest girl I saw all day! Canopied roads make me feel good In person, they were almost luminescent I think this guy liked Minions I must too........ .......to show them all to you! Okay, but ...

Yea! Finally getting to visit Patience and little Shannon again. Oh no! Not that guy again! Just don't look him in the eye, maybe he'll go away. If I close my eyes he ain't there. Hmmm, how come grandpa Ken is enjoying this so much? From the age of 8 until almost 14 Patience has ridden over 30k with me on my summer trips. In that time I think we visited around 30 states also. When I offered to take her for a walk she instantly got over her shyness, grabbed my hand and off we went. No shyness at all with this guy. After our walk, she, I and Patience all went for a ride around the neighborhood. Like her mother, she was a natural OK gramps, we're going for another ride, but this time you're sitting in back! Here we are taking another walk. I think we did at least a mile. While at it she tried out all of the neighbors toys! Technically I think it is called Grand Theft Auto  We've come a long way Baby! I'm still a kid Patience and her father at their new business...

A couple of Honda's at the Hon Dah Some mild Wild Life Enjoying their home on the range. The Little Colorado River originates about 15 or 20 miles from this little town of Greer, AZ. There are several of these little scrub cabins here in Greer. I think they are just some old trapper cabins from the 1800's It is apparent that the firefighters were really working hard to protect them from being lost to the Wallow Fire. In spite of their efforts, many were lost. It's hard to believe that was nine years ago. I might be able to afford to rent this one for a night. Our intended breakfast encounter. Sherm is riding past the Rendezvous Cafe where we were hoping to have breakfast. Unfortunately they weren't open These guys greeted us without pandemic mask when we finally made it to an establishment that was serving breakfast. By the time we finally made it, it was called lunch. After breakfast we decided to ride around the local roads just to see what we might see. Nice old 54? ...
