Hmm... keeping a sense of humor...
Well, the first leg of our trip was short-lived. We made it 30 miles past Auburn and our "trusty" 2007 Ford Escape broke down.... just didn't have any get-up-and-go to get up the hills. Thanks to the very nice folks from AAA and Sierra Towing, we were towed back to Auburn and now the Escape is at Auburn Ford for diagnostics. At right is a photo of the Escape on the tow truck. You can see Matt's duffel bags still on top of the car -- they look like cat ears to me!
A big shout out to the management team at Best Western Golden Key in Auburn for their sincere concern for our situation and offers of assistance to get us back underway. Not only were the team members, Chuck and Jennifer, terrific, but the facility was extremely pleasant, and the "continental breakfast" was one of the best we've seen outside of an Embassy Suites. Way to go, Best Western Golden Key.
