Living the dream Ted! The "winding road next 99 miles" sign is the type that always puts a smile on my face! Sunny side up, engage warp drive and have a blast!

Ted out there living his best life.

Im curious if you could spend a moment discussing the different powerplants and your thoughts on them. PM if you'd like to keep it separate from this thread

Done with Montana back roads. Off West and South to Shasta. Hot day. About 100 in Lewiston.
Did the Lolo Pass Route west bound. Hwy 12. Spectacular 100 miles of winding roads always by the Lochsa River
and the Clearwater River closer to Lewiston. Lots of river views. Highly recommended.

Good drive on one of the most scenic roads. Hwy 129/3 from Clarkston WA to Enterprise OR.
Drops 3000' down the Rattlesnake grade to the Grande Ronde River and back up on the Oregon side.
Traveling roadsters are not light weight. Trunk is full of spares and tools.

This is sooooo awesome!

The photos are terrific, and I've fished many of the rivers you've driven by. So I daydream about cruising those roads in my car someday – fly rod waving out the back of the car.

Have a blast, stay safe, keep 'em coming.
