Leaving Nevada behind, we’re in California! We’ve been traveling I-80 more or less following the Truckee River in a direction opposite to its flow from Lake Tahoe to Pyramid Lake. It’s gorgeous and cool up here at 7,056 feet. The Pacific Crest Trail passes through here on its way from Mexico to Canada. Meanwhile as we now leave the Truckee behind, we’re headed to the South Fork of the American River.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
