Thick Fog

When I left Orick, CA. this morning the fog had shrouded the wholle area. I thought I would bike out of it after a while. However, after 47 miles of biking, the fog never lifted. At points, I only had about 35 yards of visibility. All I could do was strap on my lights, hug the shoulder as far to the right as possible, and keep peddling. Well, I guess I could have stayed put, but fog is common to this area and who knows how long I would have to wait. Anyway, the biking was uneventful today. I could not see any viewpoints and therefore I did not take any side trips. I am now in Eureka, CA. staying at a KOA campground. I think I am fairly close to 1,300-1,400 total miles so far. I passed through the towns of Trinidad and Arcata today. Humboldt University is in Arcata. There are numerous Victorian homes in this area. Hopefully, I will be able to get some pictures tomorrow as I leave Eureka. Tomorrow ai will bike through the "avenue of the giants", a huge redwood forested area. I think there is a redwood tree you can drive a car through that is supposed to very, very old (they say, 400 BC. Oh, I forgot to tell you, 2 days ago I biked through the segolilly capital of the world. I guess 90 percent of all sego Lilly bulbs come from this California farmland. All else is well with me. I am enjoying the adventure. Jerry
