Yes, so it’s been a while since we’ve blogged on our adventure. We left off in San Luis Obispo. Well, the next day we were due in Temecula. We went through Santa Barbara, Malibu and L.A. to get there. Then we stayed with Jeff and Janine for about five weeks, saw them get married, went to wine country in Temecula, watched their cat and dog while they were on their honeymoon, and left.
There’s a lot more to say, but now that we’re back on the road and heading to Chicago, we’ll just skip it. Maybe we’ll reflect on it later if we’re feeling nostalgic about Southern California, but for the time being we’ve had our fill. Weather’s great, staying at Jeff and Janine’s was great, everyone drives SUVs, Hummers and jacked-up pickup trucks, and the drivers are about 10 times worse than Massachusetts drivers. Bea agrees.
There’s a lot of construction and smog and you breathe it all in and cough and wheeze. Or at least I do because I have bad allergies. I’m also allergic to the animals. Now I’m complaining so I’ll stop and we’ll move on to the return trip.
