San Diego, Prelude

It occurred to me as I hit the 805 / 5 interchange that I may have forgotten something. And not just anything but something really important.

Shit. The travel guides.

Luckily, I remembered. Unfortunately, by then, I was 60 miles south, arriving at my friend’s apartment, and the day’s activities will have already been in mid-swing. After the party, in several hours time, we will be on our way to Flagstaff, Arizona, the first leg of a month+ long roadtrip across this strange and beautiful country. And then New Mexico. And from there, wherever. Chicago. Boston. New York.

If you’d like a postcard (memory-willing), send your address to fan777 at gmail.com.

    Hooray to endless hours on the road. Much better than endless hours in front of my computer.
