April 9: Redding CA to Springfield OR

April 9, 2017: Redding CA to Springfield OR. Lots of driving. Some ‘fast forwarded’ Supercharger fun. Charging the car’s batteries going downhill through regenerative breaking. Kye meets a ‘bear’… Enjoy the scenery!

I hope you enjoyed our lovely northern California/southern Oregon electric highway. I love the presence of Mt. Shasta. Safe journey home, Jim

We can’t count the number of times we have driven that route over the decades. And, next week once again. Some day in our BEV! Avoiding I-5 through PDX is usually advised during daylight hours. 205 usually a better choice.

  Hi Ken. Thanks for the tip! It’ll be more fun in a BEV, hopefully, you can switch soon! It’s something to look forward to! Silke

  Driving an electric car makes distances shrink, do you agree? I find myself planning trips I wouldn’t have considered in a gas car. Nothing is too far, if anything, because driving my e-car is such a joy, it’s not far enough. 😊 Silke
