Julian ride Feb 27, 2016

Getting ready to ride.  Going to Julian, CA, for some lunch and pie.


Gas stop at Westmoreland, CA Taking off morning warmer clothes


At 4226 feet elevation, it was nice up here.  About 20 degrees cooler than Yuma.


Romy looks like an Alberta Cowgirl, but really, she's a motorcycle rider.


Lots of "apple everything" up here.  Lots of orchards.


Weekends are always busy up here.  Lots of people from the Southern California cities come up here to get out of the heat and smog.


Snuffy Smith, the Julian t-shirt


We had lunch here.  Everyone was very pleased with what they had.


The gang.  Dave and Romy, Jim and Katie, Joe and Susan, and Jim Sigelaar.


No shortage of places to eat


There are several Bakeries here.  We usually end up here at Mom's.


A whole apple, cored, then filled with cheese and cinnamon, covered with a light flaky crust.  Served with Cinnamon-Honey Ice Cream.  Yummy. 


Joe taking a little rest


These cute dogs were in one of the many stores.  This was a dress shop. Very cute little ones.


An old prospector


This is a pretty place to stop.  There are some walking trails, and some caves near by.


It's close to an old Butterfield Stage station


Tough looking charactors


Mountains in the background.  San Diego isn't too far from the other side of those hills


Joe snapped this on the way up the hill.  It climbs from Sea Level to over 4200 feet


Going up this morning, while we were still on Interstate 8.
