ReplyDeleteWe have been talking about taking that trip, driving up through Colorado and Montana, then into Washington and down the coast. We have a dear friend in Northern California who lives on the coast, so we would be able to stop to see her. When we visit her, we get to see all those wonderful places along the coast. Look forward to your pictures, BJ!

Years ago, we went to Napa Valley and down to Caramel... To tell the truth, I was scared all the time in CA. For fear "The Big One' would hit and I'd be there!!!! -grin- I was so happy, when our plane lifted off, heading home. I felt... "Hahhhh, it didn't get me!!!" Silly me, hu?
