Yeah.. he commented on the wind yesterday when I was talking to him... That's pretty typical of Kansas so.... Not fun to ride/drive across at all.

Guy was in Parkersburg WV. We had breakfast at the Mountaineer Restaurant (THANKS Guy!!!!!). I met with Guy and George (a friend of Guy's from Maine, who recently moved back to WV). We had a good chat. 
Both Guy and George are on 50 heading east. Then they will jump on I-79N for a ways and then take side roads up past east Pittsburgh to miss the city traffic.
Dawg he's heading your way!!!!
Hopefully it will stay dry today for their ride.
Nice meeting you Guy; thanks for breakfast!

Yeah he called yesterday letting me know when he'll get in. I'll be looking for him to help load him up and see him off towards home this evening.
Interesting how close some of you are to US50. I am about 3 miles by road, and maybe a mile as a crow flies.
There is a sign at the start of US50 in Sacramento, "Ocean City Md 3xxx miles".
I am 35 miles east of Sacramento, off US50. I have only traveled east of Lake Tahoe on it once, while returning from Wyoming. That time, we came down Wind River Canyon and SouthPass, then crossed I80 at Rawlins and dropped south along Flaming Gorge. Caught US 50 near Provo. It is a pretty lonely highway thru Nevada.
