heck; I would buy them a couple of pints each......

[special-K]

Talk about 1/2 pint. There ya go!

I can't wait until this trip is over so you can plan a trip back over my way. I could be a hella guide over a large area. So much to do, so much to see. And so much to eat!

Stay on the road. Running off to the right is surely bad. But you really don't want to bump the left and dart right either

I didn't forget about you Tim my next trip will be to the Northeast.

[Killer Bee]

truth is, Mrs. Bee made a special trip for an IPA assortment for our special guest

I had the short cans of Hoegarden cuz they were out of Franziskaner..

I got Ol Blue covered with Jack if he ever makes it down..

and if Mr. Davis doesn't like short beer or Jack, I probably have something he'd like

[Steeveedee]

PCH is about 30 minutes from me, if traffic isn't being a "bother". If you get to PCH and Sunset Boulevard, there is a restaurant called "Gladstone's for Fish". Just let me know.

[Killer Bee]

I love Gladstones!

I've been to the ones at universal and shoreline in long beach..

good choice Steve!

Cali. That’s one of those phrases I have never heard a Californian say. I find it entertaining. Surf’s up bra.

[davischevy]

We are Arky's you are Cali's

[mongocanfly]

Looks like a great little road trip....

[Killer Bee]

Yeah, I know, your one of them "Show Me" guys.

WE stopped at the $50,000 Silver Dollar Store in Haugan, Montana. http://50000silverdollar.com/contact.html

It's impossible to tell from the pictures, but all those panels on the counter, hanging from the ceiling are covered with silver dollars. The bartender said there were $73,000 silver dollars.

[davischevy]

WE have tornado's where I come from.

[Boog]

Oh my gosh. Larry, you went a little too far west. You're in Japan!

Yeah, Californians say "here". Then there's Frisco . I found it entertaining to hear Californians say "Back East" even if they had never been there. Something handed down through generations from those who had migrated west.

I see a sign with a dead man on it. Nice to be warned I guess. But it's one of those "What are you going to do anyway?" type of things.

Thanks for taking time to share with us.

Now you are driving in my old part of the country .. I lived up the Columbia River from Astoria about 45 miles .. When you get into Oregon and of course on 101 Highway ,, you will see signs advertising MOE'S CLAM CHOUDER ,,dont turn down a bowl of this as it is world wide famous.. Moe who invented the chowder lived in Newport Oregon which you will drive through,, but it is sold in many towns .. Oh, one more thing is you need to take a photo of you guys and truck ( just drive down main street and go out to the Ocean and you are there )at the turn around in Seaside Oregon ,, and then we can compare photos of my truck when I took a photo of it there.. have fun and take lots of photos .. I will enjoy them all..

[Ol Blue K20]

Sounds like you're having fun. Keep the pics coming.

Thanks for the tips Larry. We ate breakfast in Seaside, and did turn around where you suggested, but no pictures.

All I need to have more fun is your bike Dale. This would be great in the right weather on a bike.
