This is Holley and Chris, writing from Redding, CA. It's day 1 of our long-anticipated, Second Epic Road Trip. First goal is Squamish, a town an hour north of Vancouver. We took the 5 up, which is a really, really boring highway. We stopped in Old Sacramento for lunch, went to the boardwalk and briefly visited the Railway Museum.
On our way to the museum, we ran into a book -- Michael Crichton's Congo -- sitting outside a candy store. It had a yellow sticker on the front, proclaiming it a "traveling book" and directing us to a webiste: www.bookcrossing.com. The website lets you track books that people have tagged and released into the wild. Our book originated from Amarillo, TX. I think we'll take it up to Canada before releasing it again.
In Redding, we visited the biggest sundial in the world, which is attached to a lovely bridge over the Sacramento River.
Sorry there wasn't an update last night. I was having trouble uploading pictures (weak connection to the internets). Hopefully the next hotel will have better internets.
