Norcal Road Trip About to Kick Off

Well, Wilma (our Honda Odyssey) has had her tires rotated, an oil change and lube, a nice bath and is partially loaded for Saturday morning's start of our Norcal adventure. Maggie Mae, our Mini-Schnauzer travelling companion had her "beauty appointment" today, so she's trimmed and ready to go. John is begging Linda to give him one more haircut for the road before they leave.

Unlike our last travelogue, we plan on using this blog for our daily accounting of the road trip. We might have one or two pix in the daily blog. However, the photo gallery for the day will have a link from within that day's blog entry.

Today we have finished updating our Friends and Family distribution list and have sent an email with our blog link included. Hopefully, if you are on the Fand F list, you had no difficulties finding the blog.

We've a few more things to do to finalize preparations. Our first stop will be to visit our son, Jay, in Petaluma on our way to the coast. We've not yet seen his new residence, nor his place of work. So, we're excited about that. And, Jay, a home brew beer enthusiast, has enlisted us to help him cook up a batch of something like Pumpkin Pilsner (that's not it exactly, but it is something close and it does have the word "pumpkin" in the name)! We'll be there two days then off again! Stay tuned and see you later.  ~ John & Linda

  3. I'm silly enough, I logged in. I so enjoyed the trip log and all of the photos. I'm jealous as I was supposed to be leaving tomorrow for D.C. Have a blast and be safe! Oh yeah, can you fit Lucy's psychiatrist stand in Wilma? I really need that. ;-) G6k
