Driving to Bishop

Two days of rain in Monterey made the place almost irrecognizable: the ocean was turquoise, the hills were green, and there was snow on the mountains! Up there on the right is Dorrance Ranch.

As we drive through Salinas Valley, marveling at the green hills and snowy peaks.

Green hills in Salinas Valley!

Passing through Paso Robles, wine country.

Vineyards for miles

Almond trees for miles in Lost Hills.

A strange gas stop with 50's diner; faux person at the bar.

James Dean welcomes you to Lost Hills.

Heck of a lot of oil derricks.

It's almost like an art installation.

No shoulders. yikes!

First view of the White Mountains.

Only a little bit further....
