I sleep in on Saturday and basically did nothing at all but send a few emails and watch a couple of MotoGP races that I was behind in. I cook a massive steak for tea and even get reacquainted with vegetables. The next morning I get up and do my washing and start to get […]

I checked now and have 60 people following my blog – the Lodi Police facebook mention gained a few Locals so welcome to them. Here is me thinking I would be lucky if my family followed me! This is the site for the Lodi Police Department facebook page. Soon Fred will have a personal media […]

I am drafting this blog from inside my tent at a hidden gem of a campground just south of Fort Dick, California. This morning I got off to a late start as I was fogged in. I took a few photos of my luxurious accommodation; Yeah it was rough but I have stayed in far […]

I am doing this blog from a small town called Reedsport which is about as far west as you can go in Oregon without being in the ocean. The town has a population of about 4,000 and historically (1850’s) a lumber town until that industry died a few years ago. Now it is basically reliant […]

I thought I had better put a picture up of a church as the big fella was looking after me yesterday. What a day – starts off well with a good early start. I pack up and head up the highway and cross the border into Oregon. Straight away is Ontario and I go into […]
