Hot damn, bro. You’re almost there!! That coastal range is some kinda beautiful forest, huh.

The Pacific is calling.
Can you smell it?

As my Grandpa would say - you can smell the oats!

Thanks for your response David. I was wondering if the goods there were any … good. I doubted it, and now I know.

When you started this ride, I thought you might hit 100 by the end… should have had a pool to guess the total, and the winner could get a gift card to the dollar stores!

I have shopped in a few Dollar General’s. The only thing I have purchased is white or chocolate milk on several occasions with one exception. I purchased a small jar of off brand peanut butter. It was terrible and I ended up not eating it

I have just returned to continue with your journal and am not quite half way 😉. I am enjoying it a lot and get a kick out of all the Family Dollar stores you find. Wondering — do you ever shop in one of the stores? And do you find things you think are a good find? Curious minds want to know.

The central Oregon valley is a beautiful place, eh? Rolling hills, big trees, lotsa green, streams and rivers.

Hay Henge!!

Thanks Theresa, it has been an epic journey

Enjoy the "last leg" of your trip Dave! It's been a great journey just following your blog - can't imagine how emotionally accomplished you must feel. Embrace each moment....I am so proud of you!

Congratulations Dave! Amazing!

Dave, happy you're happily in your wheelhouse!

I would guess it is the same guy, how many Mack’s have ridden the Transamerica?

Ruby has served you well!

Interesting - I met a cyclist named Mack on the Blue Ridge in Virginia in 2015 while riding the Transam - that was 9 years ago, but - what are the odds it could be him?
