Holy. Crap.

Two days.

And I get to balance prep for the trip, work, and now classes at the local junior college! Lordy, I am running around at an impressive clip! But today with the gap between school and work, I am taking the opportunity to pack the food and the clothes and generally get myself to a point where I'm ready to load it all into the bus Thursday morning before leaving.

And speaking of Thursday, I believe our route to the starting point has changed. Word has it that one of the roads coming from the east is closed, so I am not even going to chance it and instead come up Hwy 101 and attack it from the west. Now that's not to say that it won't be fraught with peril, either! There was actually a decent amount of snow coming down in that area this morning and I am sure there'll be more in the next 48 hours! Oh, this will be such an interesting trip!

Speaking of the snow, I have been checking all over to see who has snow chain repair links around here. In a word, no one! All the local large parts suppliers do not carry repair links...they carry chains, but nothing with which to fix them! Good job, guys. *sigh*

So I'll have one more entry tomorrow...that should be after I have some time to get out and make some mechanical adjustments in preparation (yes, before I go to class). And then...well...that's it! Won't be time for anything else save for repairs along the road!

God, let me make this trip. Let it be a success and an adventure. LOL Let me come back in one piece!
