Great story/ride, the unplanned adventures are the best, scenery is wonderful.

That would be an ideal and joyful riding well into retirement.

Wow, what a cool trip! I'm headed down to paint Mom's house next weekend... won't be such a picturesque ride.

Could still be somewhat exciting.

Consider carrying the gallons of paint in the rear top box?

That’s a fine run you had there. I lived in Brookings and worked in Crescent City about 10 years ago, made the run 5 days a week. Brookings is pretty bout that’s about it. CC is a whole other story…. In the Salem area now, much better!! Rather be on the beach but the work is here…..
