Still on US101

Well, today was the second day of pretty much staying completely on US 101 and just dipping off to grab a photo here and there. I had a huge breakfast in Monterey, partially because I needed a receipt for the lighthouse, which I forgot 🤦, and partially because I was really hungry.

After that lost receipt and hence no date time proof of when I was at the lighthouse, I have decided to forego the IBA lighthouse challenge. Getting a receipt for 120+ lighthouses is going to get expensive. I already have to get a receipt near each Capitol building and near each Lap of the 48 location and near each...everything else I'm trying to do. So lighthouses are out this year.

I got a little more time on PCH 1 to get a photo of a bridge, but then probably made my way back up to Monterey so I could hook over to Salinas and back to the 101.

Then it was a don't-fall-asleep-on-the-bike ride until the turn off to Morro Bay. Morro Bay is a really cool place, but this time I only went halfway to take a photo at the restaurant Halfway Station, which unfortunately wasn't open.

Back to the 101 down to Santa Maria and then Ventura. But I am so far ahead of time, like a week, I need to figure out where I'm going the next few days. So I've stopped at a hotel and cozied up with the laptop and my GPS tonight. I do know tomorrow is going to be a lot of LA traffic, which I'm not looking forward to 😔. Wish me luck 🤞💪.

Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️
