All grown up and no place to ..... [uh] Roadtrip!
Last weekend (well, the weekend before last now) I got a Cadillac Sedan DeVille and was planning to spend a nice relaxing weekend at a B&B in Napa. Some wine tasting, some hottubbing, some spa treatment, the works. Anyway, everything got rained out, but I had this great car and nowhere to go.
I decided to head south on 101 to see how far I would go. I drove past Prunedale and noticed that they took away the cardboard cutout man who had been shaking his fist at drivers for the past 10+ years. "It's 55 in Prunedale!"
Drove past Echo Valley Road. Drove past Echo Valley Road.
Stopped at Mo's in San Luis Obispo for the best pulled pork bbq sandwich and homemade chips outside the Bible belt. Oh, and don't forget the dippin' sauce for the chips. [MMmmmm, Smack!]
I was going to stop in Santa Barbara, but it was still raining.
Saw the Sun set over the ocean just in time. The rain gave me a rainbow just in time.
I got to Goleta, but didn't laugh uncontrollably.
Ended up in Disneyland (surprise).
I really like traveling at the last minute. I enjoy not having a plan or reservations or even a final destination in mind. Sure, I ended up in Disneyland, and you probably could've guessed that, but sometimes I end up in Hawaii or 4-Corners or Vegas or the Grand Canyon. It's nice just leaving and going places, ya' know? It's what I used to dream of doing when I was young and didn't have my drivers license.
