    Hopefully your trip will be quick and your dad will stay stable. You always have a place to stay with us whenever

    Sucks that you have to cut it short, but you did it and it's in the memory banks. Now you have something to finish next time. It was nothing short of kismet running into you guys in Colorado City, of all places. (Did you Google it?) I hope your dad is well.

    Nice to meet you both. Hope you enjoyed your stay in Oakland / Bay Area, despite the bad news.

    Thanks for the goodies. I'm sure those hand warmers are going to come in handy in AK. We'll tell the Yukon you say hello.

    Safe travels home.

    Sorry to hear about your Dad. I was in your same shoes two years ago. My prayers are with you and your family.

    We arrived safe at my Dad's house about 1/2 hour ago. The rain from this Tropical Storm gave us a proper welcome back, and the bike is clean once again. :D

    Your shortened but sweet adventure is just a dream trip for most of us. Thanks for sharing.
