The Plan Goes Out The Window

Despite the fact we only went 120 miles yesterday, we felt "too busy"and even then, didn't find time for a run, or have a real sense of being laid back. So we've decided we need to rethink the Baja segment with the goal of seeing fewer places, and having longer stays. I don't think there will be a new plan - rather, we know we have agreed to meet up with Mackenzie and Matt in Tucson for four days starting March 12th (yes that's a new feature of this trip; they decided after Matt's "busy season" ends, they'll need a sunny vacation break, so called to ask if they could join us). This morning we did the slow, average speed 30 MPH, tour down the coast south of Mendocino. It was tremendous! This afternoon we did the highway 580/880 loop around San Francisco, and are headed for either Santa Cruz or the north end of Big Sur for tonight's camp. We are currently in Los Gatos, parked outside a bakery where this is being posted and the other computer is now doing campground research (we brought two laptops on the trip so we never have to fight over time on computers). Wi-Fi and the Internet are wonderful, when they work. So far we have had mixed results finding handy wi -fi. At 2:45 p.m. local time, it's 56 degrees and lightly drizzling, and the forecast for SoCal remains similar for the next few days, so we'll likely get to San Diego a day or so early, or else stick with the slow route and see the Big Sur views from the windshield.
