Goes without saying -- I'm in! Anybody else? Beautiful country -- the stretch to Sierra City is about 45 miles or so. For anyone in the Sacramento area, this is an easy day trip with lots to see.

Hi, Dick and James,

I'm in Stockholm, and will be flying home on the 17th, so I don't think I'll make it.  Some other time I'd be game.

Dick, my car's getting ever closer to being ready for the trip to Blacklick - still interested?

Dick, James -- My wife, Carol, and I would also be game.  However, we probably wouldn't be able to do such a thing until early autumn.

We'll do it again before your cross country trip to Blacklick.  I'm sure that I won't be joining you on the July drive to Blacklick...

Thanks Dick. Got your message, I'll be in touch.

TR and David, there are plenty more drives where this one comes from. Fall is a lovely time up here as well.

Dick -- Thanks for the pics.  My wife, Carol, and I both enjoyed them.  She observed that your line-up of cars needs a red one.

Thanks James.  Maybe I'll actually have a car by then.  I sure like those photos.
