That's it over so fast in another day? I hope you decide to go to Zion Nat'l Park, that is one beautiful park!
Glad you found some company while in Salines, always cool to shoot the poo-poo with fellow bikers.
Keep safe and keep bloging, loving it so far.

H, I joined the forum mostly because of the awesome times I have had reading your story. I chuckle at every mishap and think that only you could find the fun and adventure in all the annoying things that happen on rode trips. May good wheather shine upon you and we are all reading and enjoying your travels with you. Hope to see you on the way back next month.

One more thing. As I was riding today, i got to thinking. I'm not going to let this trip end just yet. Meaning, The original plan was to fly home this Sunday, then fly back in September and ride it home. We'll I'm not going to let this FJ get off that easy.
Instead, I'm going to flay back to San Diego this late summer/early fall, then ride up the PCH to the Oregon Coast. I'll probably spend some time in San Fransisco. Then I'm going to leave the bike at my ex's moms farm in Tillamook Oregon. It will stay there until the spring, when I'll come back and ride its up to Seattle, Vancouver, then back east either in Canada, or the Nothern States. I'll probably have to arrange one more place to leave the bike for a month next spring so I can cut that section up, but thats what friends are for
This this section might be ending this week, but this will definitly be picking up again in a month or two, and then again next spring/summer. There is too much more to see. Plus I have other bikes at home I can ride, so I dont mind letting the FJ stay here on the west coast.
Just thought I'd share.
Talk to ya'll soon!

Glad you were able to check out Zion. When I do my trip, that's one place I'm heading on my way to the Oregon coast.

Checked out Yahoo! maps to see what a trip from Olney, Illinois to Marysville, Ohio would entail:
5 hours and 50 minutes?!
Sorry, Yahoo!, did it in 4-1/2....
