Dang! Maybe it's supposed to be work (I will lift a total of 3034 lbs in and out of the truck) but these long runs are mini-vacations to me.

So, I'll begin at A then go to B then C and D.
LOL.
At Dixon, I'll pick up 56 boxes of dialysite weighing 1517 lbs., drop 22 in the town of Glen Ellen then carry-on past Willits and into the Mendocino National Forest.
This makes me part of America's failing health system. Riiight. And where else can you do dialysis in the comfort of your own home, rather than having to get to a clinic and spend most of the day?
Don't know where else. But we do have it and it is not government provided.
Pictures to follow. :peace:

Between Benicia and Fairfield, Vallejo is to the north on the other side of these hills.

Between Vaccaville and Sacramento, farmland is changing from raising crops to raising people.

Someday, I must clean Clyde. Maybe I took this at the pick-up so I could calculate how many miles of the total was with cargo.

Cordelia, driving towards Vallejo. I'll pass and go to Sonoma.
The stories about California being part of Mexico are propaganda. 23 years was all of Mexican influence.
