Back in Redding again

Mile 908

So we decided to do all three today. Did Shasta, did Lassen, now back in Redding, on the way to the California coast. Here's how our day went:

Got up at 6am and headed straight up north to see Mt. Shasta. The first picture is at mile 715 taken from the town of McCloud near the base of Shasta. From there we were able to loop out east and go straight to Lassen Volcanic National Park. As you can see from the second picture taken at mile 813, it's a little bit cooler there than it was in Redding. I suppose an 8000 foot difference in elevation will do that.

Now, we are on our way to Redwood National Park on the coast. We had to pass through Redding again, so we stopped for a break at a coffee shop that has free wireless. That's how I've been doing all my blogging. Incidentally, many Burger Kings have free wireless access apparently. I haven't tried them yet, but it's good to know. We should be able to make it to the coast by 7pm, in time to see the sunset. I'll let you know.
