Road Report - Day 3

Stats: Drove 5 hours today. Mpg: 37-38.5 Mph: 65-80. Gas: $1.75 - $2.19

Mountains: A lot of mountain driving. Outside of Reno went over the Sierras using Donner Pass. Yes, that pass. It had snowed and I had to have chains. $80 installed, $15 to remove. Cash only. And it was mostly wet and slushy. Chains vibrated the car. Max speed: 35 mph.
Not sure the chains were necessary but the may be when driving the mountains in Oregon, so now I have them.

Arrived around noon to visit my dear friend in California. Will visit her through Monday morning then to Santa Rosa to visit cousins.

Will leave for Oregon on Thursday.
