Departure Plans
Lisa continues to prepare her little pickup truck for the trip to Columbus. We took it out for a spin last night, and while it was mostly okay, a non-functioning turn signal indicator on the dash (the signals themselves worked) led to a couple of hours' work tearing the dash apart and putting it back together again.

The current travel plan is for Lisa and me to leave mid-day Saturday, traveling as a convoy to Bend, Oregon, where I will turn south toward California and Lisa will continue east toward Ohio. I have a hotel reservation at Klamath Falls for tomorrow night, and I'll make the rest of the trip to Fremont on Sunday, where I'll have a full day to travel.

The purpose of this convoy plan is to provide for some back-up should any problems turn up in Lisa's pickup during the first leg of the trip. It will take me only a little bit longer to drive south via the inland route than via I-5, and Klamath Falls is about as far south as I'd originally intended to stop (Medford) in my original plans.

Now I need to hurry up and finish some stuff for work so we can run into Salem (again!) to AAA and pick up some maps for Lisa.
