i thought the vivid contrast in colors was worthy of a photo.
it was cool (cold, actually) and quiet.

still heading inland, still trying to get away from the cold. note how the small hillock in the background pokes well up into the marine layer.

this is Los Gatos Road.

editors Everitt, Carrithers and Catterson rode Los Gatos Road on their way to the USGP at Laguna Seca in July, and LOVED it.

at Coalinga one is officially in the San Joaquin Valley, and the Sierra Nevadas to the east - my last "To Do" on this trip - are not even visible thru the heat and the haze.
hence, no pix for a couple of hours. nothing to shoot, no mood to shoot it, just... gotta... get... outta... this... HEAT!!!
funny story here.
up at Montecito Lodge during Oktoberfast, the gals (Joanne, Laurie and Sandy), asked if by any chance i'd been to the Mountain House Saloon recently.
they had driven up to Sequioa/Kings Canyon during Oktoberfast, totally separate from the group ride, and had apparently stopped at the Mountain House for refreshments.
"Why do you ask?" i asked with a grin.
"Because there's a SPIDERMAN sticker on the front window!!!"
guilty as charged.
