Today Brother Mike reminded us that we had dropped off the radar. In fact, we had gotten lazy after Santa Barbara. After flying back into LaGuardia Airport (that was especially re-opened for our return after an evacuation because of a bomb scare), we quickly dropped back into our busy non-blog world.
California was beautiful, relaxing and much cooler than the rest of the country. After temperatures above 100 degrees from at least Texas to Southern California, Santa Barbara north had temperatures in the high fifties in the morning and sixties through most days. We succeeded in our mission to deliver the relatively clean car to our youngest, who was in the midst of union elections running literally from before dawn to very late at night. Nevertheless, we were toured around San Francisco and the Bay area, including outstanding Italian cooking wherever we went from downtown to suburbs to crossroads.
We recommend a cross-country trip every half-century or so!
