This will be the last post on the ES blog for 2005. The sun goes down into the Pacific Ocean, right behind the North Spit along Coos Bay. This is close to my house, I got in around 6 PM on Oct. 6th. 6717 miles, trouble free, and never had to ride in the rain. This will end the blogging until the next trip.

This is my kind of sailing. Tied up in a nice little cove with totally flat water. There is lots of boating here on the delta. That's Mount Diablo in the distance. In the early 60's I used to come to this area to Duck hunt and fish for Strippers with friends that were stationed at the Rio Vista Coast Guard station. The "Good ol' Days"!
It pays to go out with someone that knows the owner of this fine dining restaurant. Don requested a private room, and got it. He ordered Walnut coconut prawns, pressed duck, beef in oyster sauce, chicken oriental salad with a special dressing as per his request, gai-lan (a green vegetable in some kind of sauce) and steamed Sole. along with rice and tea. We enjoyed it to the fullest!

This is the last picture of the day. The must get large tourists in Oatman, AZ. Lots of motorcycle riders too. Can you imagine the size of someone that wears a 5XX!!! I took a whole bunch of pics here, but only posted a few. It's getting late and I'm sleepy, but this will give you an idea of our day.
