Yes, but I was looking at a prettier route than I5, even though it's not really sensible, and I have heard of L. Tahoe. If we've already taken a good look at the Sierra Nevada at Yosemite, it might not be all that special to see even more mountains and huge sequoias, though. Probably go up I5, maybe break the journey near Mount Shasta - looks impressive on Google Earth. I'd rather spend a day or two seeing something of local interest than pore over piles of Chinese tourist items in SF. Riverside Lodge Motel is one of the host motels for the Invasion - I sure hope it's in Oregon! I think the trip from SF to the invasion was given as over 400 miles and around 7 hrs driving. I don't fancy that in a day, even with A/C. I've got time to be a bit circumspect! Thought we could see a bit of the real CA on the way - where's that? Is the Sonoma Valley worth the detour if you're not going to do a vinyard tour? We're saving the coast for the way back. Dave.
