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.

There is no rational way to get to Oregon by way
of Lake Tahoe from San Francisco. Tahoe is a go there,
go back kind of trip unless you are heading east. Oregon
is North, and from the San Francisco area it's about
a 4-5 hour drive, one way, depending on exactly where
you are coming from.
The Riverside Lodge Motel appears to be in Oregon
according to Google.
