Sunrise at 80mph
I made this photograph at sunrise just before hitting the town of Chico, CA. The windows in the SightSeer Lounge are pretty dirty. They probably only clean them at one end of the two-way journey and I'm at the wrong end. However, they kind of added to the softening effect for this photo.Currently still 4 hours behind as far as I can determine. Not sure how they are going to make that up. If the ETA to Olympia is TOO late I'll have to make some sort of arrangement for my friends to pick me up in the morning or something.....maybe sleep on a bench in the station IF they remain open at all. We didn't leave SAC until at least 5:45am.....it was supposed to leave at midnight. We are currently at Redding and it's 10am. I haven't really slept much, and will probably end up sleeping through the prettiest parts. Either that or it'll be dark by the time we get to those parts.

i think you will be going through the Salinas Valley..that is a pretty place... and also through the mountains near Mt Shasta... that is awesome... no matter what time you arrive, we will be there to pick you up..don't worry about it... we also have the number to the trains, so we can call to find out the arrival time too...
oopppsss, just looked at the map and you already went through the Salinas Valley...giggle...BUT you are coming up on a really pretty section of Oregon and it is such a nice day too! Savor it because it is a rare sight to see the sun!
