Day 3 map

"Sierra Foothills"

Distant highway bridge over body of water. (Frank) Eating breakfast at Denny's. We're roughing it!

(Alan) An uneventful day for a change. This photo is the lake on Parrots Ferry Road, on the way into Columbia.

Street scene with horse and buggy. My diary doesn't mention where we stopped this night, but I think it was in the gold-rush town of Jamestown, in the Sierra foothills south of Sonora. I do recall taking this photo in the even quainter town of Columbia where we stopped to soak up the atmosphere.

At the motel we had a repair party to clean and repack our wheel hubs to get out the water from our aquatic adventures Sunday. We bought some waterproof grease at a bike shop so hopefully won't have to do this again.
