NoCal Brew Tour: Day 1

First thing's first: we set out on a journey through Northern California to visit 15 breweries in a week. Our ultimate destination happened to be the Boonville Beerfest on May 10th. You can read about it here

We had been preparing this trip for a long time, so we had a couple of Bible pages to help us plan our way. Here is the Google Earth map of our plan, and here is our nifty spreadsheet itinerary.

Now, on to the trip. The four of us (Tony, Mimi, Kenji, and Dave) piled our gear into and on top of my car and finally left Kenji's house around 8 PM. We had originally planned to leave around 6:30, but I'm always late and refused to pack ahead of time. The drive to Medford, OR was mostly uneventful. It was pretty late by the time we arrived, and I had started to see things towards the end. We checked into our Motel, unpacked the car, and promptly fell asleep.
