Following the meal we had a lumberjack sawing contest and then drinking games. Our bus driver, Ben, got very drunk. I participated in Boat Racing, a favorite drinking sport on the West Coast.
The next morning Ben had a very hard time waking up. When he did get up, he immediately had a a beer for breakfast and urged the bus tour passengers to spend an extra day at the bar in Ross. Almost the entire bus voted to get on the road, with a very drunken Ben behind the steering wheel.
