Northern California was truly beatiful with a unique mixture of tropical mountain terrain. We drove down a long, narrow, whindy road that had huge Red Wood trees and thick forest growth. We ended up in an abandend rail-road town called Occidental. A tiny beautiful town nested in the mountains. The ocean was freezing and the sand was black. We drove by the church where the movie "The Birds" was filmed. We ate way too much salt water taffy and lazied around a beautiful hotel. This trip had some beautiful scenery but we won't be going back any time soon! We mixed some business with some torture. Todd somehow made a cute video out of the fiasco! We took the Bronco to sell it to a "nice" man in Bodega Bay and ended up with a wrecked bronco and dealing with a psycho! Ryder got a taste of anti-Mormon cynicism with a dash of what New York style hospitality might be like!

Good Luck Ryder!

ps I don't know which beast had more hair, the cow or Todd. I'll make sure he keeps his shirt on next time!
