The motel we stayed at last night included a limited menu selection at a local restaurant as the motel breakfast. The restaurant was about 5 km away from the motel (but at least it was in the correct direction for us) and of course took more time than the average continental breakfast at a motel, plus tipping the waitress was the correct thing to do. Still $2 for a good breakfast is cheap. There was a variety of choices and we had plenty to eat and it was tasty. Anyway this was a first for us.
Today is a driving day. We are going from Redding to Buck Meadows (12 miles from the Yosemite's east gate about 500 km. The road was fairly flat and straight as we passed several cities including Sacramento and many fields of orchards.
Ed loves DC3s and saw this one beside the highway.
The Don Pedro reservoir. Water from this reservoir goes to San Francisco.
A pretty flower near the motel where we are staying.
