Portland now scheduled for April 21
The karmic conspiracy keeping me from Portland continues. Between work pressures, tax deadlines, dental work, and the stinking weather, Portland must wait. Here's today's view of the Siskiyou Pass in southern Oregon:

The current plan is to leave in the afternoon of Saturday, April 19th, and stop in Red Bluff or Redding. This will let me hit the Siskiyous around noon on Sunday to avoid any morning frost, and get into Portland easily on Sunday evening. GP Suspensions will do their thing on Monday, and I'll stay in Portland again on Monday night. Tuesday will be for local shakeout of the suspension, and a visit to my sister's old neighborhood for some photos. Tuesday afternoon I'll head down to Medford or Grants Pass for the night, followed by a blast home on Wednesday, and back to work on Thursday.
Weather permitting, of course...
