We began the journey Sunday morning. We (Asher, ride-sharer: Kirsten, and I) drove through to the Schott residence from 8 AM arriving at 10 PM. We stopped to grab a speeding ticket after Vegas, dance under the eclipse, throw frisbees, and admire the closed signs on all the junk shops, antique stores, and thrift shops we walked up to. Monday we drove up a mountain pass and spent the day in a mountain meadow. We indeed did hike up a mountain, or maybe a hill as surrounded by the rest of the Tahoe sierras. We trampolined a bit and had an awesome family dinner as the extended Schott family. Tuesday we ran and jumped in the lake before sunrise and drove the morning through Truckee to Reno where we picked up ride-sharer: Bailey from BC/ Costa Rica. From Reno we crusaded over into Shasta with a little bit of getting lost, a groc-out stop, and a lake jump some where a long the way. In Shasta town we snatched some of the local berries and voyaged on up a forest road to under Mt Eddy. We got stuck in a snow drift before setting up camp in the meadow. Things got meadow-status ghetto when i sliced the tip of my thumb, whilst chopping some dinner, which is currently wrapped up away from my sight and thoughts. The night was cold and painful, but I have pain killers and a plan to keep it hidden from the danger of life. We left the meadow Wednesday morning to attack Portland with a mini stop in Ashland. In Portland we added one Jake Nepalm, one Laiken, and one Chriss to our journey. Scoped the down town, some food carts, some thrift shops, and some midnight soccer.
