    Well I left Elizabeth City North Carolina on friday morning and pulled into home monday morning...(Eugene Oregon area) 3550 some miles in 3 days. I burned just shy of 6 tanks. Friday night was the only night we stopped over for and slept. That was in Evansville IN. Saturday morning we headed for Mt Rushmore, got there about 3am so we took a nap in the pickup then at sun up went and snapped a few photos and hit the road again. From there is was non stop to Oregon. Didnt ever hit any bad roads, saw lots of animals on the side of the road, dead and alive. Today I worked on an oil change, putting amsoil in everything, ill let you know how that treats me. The air filter was due for a cleaning, couldnt believe how many bugs were hiding in there...
