the Elk have it made!

May 4- 5, 2006
Time to chill, went just a few miles today.
The lead for best greasy spoon is now held by the Palm Cafe, located in Orick pop.650. It's open 365 day a year, has great grease, decent prices and the best jukebox I have ever seen. Orick sits in the heart of the Pacific Redwoods, surrounded by elk. The elk are very excited, Led Zeppelin is coming to the local theater. Not sure if ticketmaster has tickets, it's a small theater, so buy tickets now!
Great camping at Elk Meadow, with great hikes to the ocean though old-growth redwood forest.
Friday May 5 into Arcata for a shower and shave.
Arcata has a ordinace, if a city employee help the feds, concerning civil liberties (Patriot Act),
they will be fined $58. I little like Eugene or Berkery, more isolated, more dreads.
Great cheese made here at Cypress Grove, they make some of the best goat cheese around.
I got a tour and some cheese, Pee Wee Pyramid and Fog Lights. Artisan cheese at it's best.
Took a walking tour of town, found the Bluegrass barber, when he not cutting, he's strumming.
Had a great grass-feed burger, real onion rings and a malt at a place called Stars, plus a light wholewheat bun, too!
Saturday, the farmers market in the plaza, then to Eureka, by george.
Please let me know how many tickets you need.
