Memorial Day Weekend Traffic

5:00 pm update. Another traffic accident when a car needed to be towed 3 miles south of Gorda. Apparently, a lucky driver joined the west of highway one club and his vehicle is 250 ft. down the cliff. The driver apparently suffered no injuries. Going to be a busy weekend. Glad I am up here!

Yesterday, there was a bad motorcycle accident near South Forty, up by Hurricane e Point. Today there is one down by the bottom of my road. This from CHP website:

Lots more holiday traffic on the roads means lot more opportunities for accidents. Drive carefully, out there!

BTW, decided to postpone the Big Sur LUP publication until after the holiday weekend, so space can be available to update everyone throughout the weekend, as needed.
