2 days in Denver
Mostly driving from Dillon over the Loveland pass. But we also got time to go up Mt Evans. Lovely views and an amazing road up Mt Evans and we were not alone testing.

Vacation is in full swing. So far we made it to Vegas via Sedona; Grand Canyon, Antelope Canyon and Zion National Park.
Vegas is busy and as many said not really for kids but we all have enjoyed it.
Today it's of to Death Valley a stop over in Tonopah and then towards Yosemite.

Tonapah! Don't eat the chicken!
Might want to do a side trip to Bodie Ca. Ghost town
Happy to hear you are having a good visit!!!!!!!!
Henrik,
We will be racing at Laguna Seca in Monterey July 22-24 if you want come by, or contact Neil Porter at Porter Racing and rent one of his FFs or CFs for the weekend!

Smaller open wheel cars are in Group 4, wings and sports racers in Group 2. We are the last race on Sunday, @3:00PM. Laguna Seca is a county park, so a small admission fee of $9 is charged by the carload at the gate. You will only need to sign a waiver to enter the paddock.

We will look forward to seeing you and your family. I'm running #77 yellow Crossle.

So what did you think of the Bonneville Salt Flats?
Henrick, My name is Bob Hatle. I live in Oceanside about 2 miles from the 101 Cafe. I race Formula Fords--if you have time to visit when you're in town, give me a call. I have a shop with two Formula Fords and a Formula 3. Bob Hatle 760-722-0092.
Henrik, Looking forward to meeting you. Give me a call when you're close to town and we'll set a time to meet. Bob
Bodie Ghost Town was one of our trip highlights so far!
Mammoth Lake was also very good. There was the US national MTB and down hill series visiting. Strong guys and very brave.
We found Yosemite not as good as Zion but perhaps it was a bad idea to visit on at Sunday noon. A lot of people is an understatement!
San Francisco, nice maybe we had our hopes set to high for Alcatraz but still interesting. We managed Napa Valley with the old faithful geyser. Expensive for what it is.
Redwoods and Vineyards.
Sonoma was nice.
Santa Cruz was over crowded at Saturday mid day......
Laguna Seca and Monterey with 17-mile drive was again a highlight. Sorry we missed the FF race and Dan Wise.
But we got our T-shirts :-)
Tomorrow we're heading south along HWY 1 to Ventura.

Hearst castle ? Solvang?
If you're still in Carmel head to the barnyard shopping center and have breakfast at a place called "from scratch"
Good food!
Though I have only visited San Diego, so really don't have "on the ground" knowledge of California, when I was dreaming up a road trip a couple of years ago, these were some of the interesting points I thought about in Southern California:
- The Santa Monica Pier is the end of the legendary Rt 66. Is it worth seeing? Don't know.
- Hollywood, not sure what part is worth a short visit
- La Brea Tar Pits at Page Museum on Wilshire Blvd in LA
- Beverly Hills, original Umami Burger joint on La Brea, across from Goodwill store
- Rent a wetsuit and go bodysurfing in Malibu or Newport Beach
Again, not a CA resident so these are East Coast ideas of what to see and do.

Henrik,
We are glad you got to enjoy a taste of California. Hope to get to meet you next time.
Safe travels.

I finally got around to upload some of our 3000+ pictures from our USA trip.
Thanks for all contributions on what to see.
