We planned to spend a month in the San Luis Obispo area. And we did. Now it's time to head back to the 'other' coast. We need to be in Florida by first of May in order to be ready to go with my Mom on a dive trip to Fiji. Pretty cool huh? A dive trip to Fiji - her treat! We'll be on a boat called the Nai'a. Check out their website.

Please don't wake me. I have to remind myself that, just a few years ago, the prospect of taking 1-2 months to travel across the country in an RV would have been a 'someday' dream. Something to wish for, make plans for, and envy others for doing. Now, it's just 'matter-of-fact'. Let's see, we're in California. We need to be in Florida mid-April, first of May. OK, let's go.

Pinch me.

We're going to stay south, sticking pretty close to I-10 the whole way. With one specific detour to Big Bend National Park in Texas. Our friends Andy and Diane say it is a 'must see' and we've driven by it 3 times now!

We left the Pacific a couple days ago it was kinda rainy.


Are we in Ireland? You'd think so from the rich green rolling hills just east of San Simeon.





This reminds me, I need to show you a couple photos that I missed posting earlier. In this same green rolling hills area, Liz took me to a friend's home to show me around. Her friend actually has 2 houses on a few hundred acres! One house they live in, the other they rent out to private parties. Here's the 'party house'.







If you want more information on the house, they have a website at www.cottontailcreek.com Liz has reserved this house for a party the first week of May. I'm invited. Actually, it's a reunion of the 'Downhill' group. This was a group of friends who used to go backpacking once a year in Big Sur. Liz found a trail where we could spend 3 days hiking ... downhill. Too bad the timing doesn't work for me to go. It sure is beautiful though. Bye for now Lizzie!
