whew!!! looked and looked for a decent place to stay.

Found a cute place in San Luis Obispo. ONly 30 minutes from the start.
per night with internet discount was $89.00 (without the tax etc). By far the cheapest with exception of motel 6 (yuck). The place is called AppleFarm
www.applefarm.com or call 800-374-3705

Well I'm looking forward to this ride. Now need to get a camera so I can take pictures of the california poppies/field of wild flowers in bloom (I hope).
